All students applying to Springfield Commonwealth Academy (SCA) will need to submit recent standardized testing (e.g., MCAS, CMT’s CAPT’s, A-Net, PARCC or SSAT). Any test scores submitted should be dated within the last academic school year of the student's application to SCA. The SSAT is a standardized test used by private schools to measure academic aptitude at three academic levels: elementary, middle, and upper school.
