Dear C2 Livingston Parents and Students:
The CollegeBoard has announced exciting news about the changes to the SAT. We’ve taken a moment to summarize those changes. Overall, these changes make the schoolwork support that we provide even more important. The CollegeBoard has put an even stronger emphasis in college & career readiness, and there is no one else that can deliver the kind of support that we do here at C2 Livingston.
Our philosophy has always been to focus on doing whatever we can to help students gain knowledge and core skills, build confidence, and learn the right habits that will allow them to become independent life-long learners.
