In January 2010 Jeff Tech created a new committee with the goal of lending support to its students in obtaining high performance levels on the Pennsylvania State Student Assessment tests. Known as the PSSA Taskforce, this group of dedicated students and faculty advisers held motivational events, spearheaded countdown and prep activities and even provided test-takers with food and chances to win prizes! The 2010 efforts were such a success thanks to everyone’s hard work and dedication that we’re expanding our efforts to include NOCTI testing as well for 2011! Jeff Tech is proud to announce the formation of the 2011 Jeff Tech PSSA-NOCTI Task Force!

Anyone with more questions about this year’s plans should feel free to contact Mr. Ettaro, PSSA-NOCTI Taskforce Faculty Advisor, in IT’s digital media technology program.

Friday, January 7th the Jeff Tech Student Advisory Council was formed for the PSSA/NOCTI Taskforce.  The group of students met for the first time this year to elected officers and to brainstorm ideas of helping students in obtaining high performance levels on the Pennsylvania State Student Assessment (PSSA) and the NOCTI tests.  This group of dedicated students will spearhead the school’s countdown and prep activities providing many types of bonus motivation for the test takers.  Those who qualify to take the PSSA this year will have opportunities to win prizes and compete in various activities the committee organizes.  For more information on this year's activities and meeting minutes and videos, check out the Jeff Tech website under the PSSA/NOCTI links here.
