Admission Guidelines for Masterman Middle School:
A local percentile of 88 on the PSSA test in both Reading and Math are the minimum requirement.
- Public school families should contact the child’s present school for score conversion information. The national percentile on a nationally recognized standardized test may be considered when it is available, particularly for non-public school students.
- In addition to test scores, a recent individual psychological test with a score of 130 or above may be submitted but will not necessarily guarantee admission.
- A lower reading score may be considered for students who have lived in the U.S. for three years or less.
- All A’s and B’s are the minimum grades required to apply. Most of the students who are admitted have nearly all A’s. The highest levels of other marking systems are also expected.
- A full year of French or Spanish and algebra are required prior to grade nine.
- The behavior/citizenship grades in all areas should be B or higher.
- Good attendance and punctuality are required.
