Exceptional Middle School Students Recognized by Johns Hopkins University

Two students from Horizon Middle School recently excelled on the SAT Reasoning Test. Eighth grader Trevin Hiebert scored a perfect 800 on the mathematics portion of the exam, and seventh grader Phillip Yan achieved a score of 710. Hiebert and Yan were two of 61 seventh and eighth grade students from Central Valley School District invited by the Johns Hopkins University Center for Talented Youth (CTY) to take the SAT.

Thirteen Central Valley students who took the SAT achieved awards of distinction by meeting or exceeding the average scores of college-bound seniors (508 verbal, 520 math). Additionally, 12 students who demonstrated exceptional ability in one or both areas were invited to attend the regional awards ceremony. Several students also achieved statewide honors for excellent scores (at least 550 for seventh graders, 600 for eighth graders) on either the verbal or the mathematics portion of the test.

The CTY Talent Search identifies, assesses, and recognizes students with exceptional mathematical and/or verbal reasoning abilities. Students qualify for participation in the Talent Search by scoring at or above the 95th percentile on a nationally normed, standardized aptitude or achievement test. The Talent Search gives students the opportunity to take a test designed for older students to reveal more about their academic abilities to help them recognize and develop their academic strengths.
