ACT Testing for All Juniors - March 12, 2024
The ACT is a paper-pencil, multiple‐choice assessment in four areas: English, Math, Reading, and Science, with an additional 40‐minute writing essay.
To create the most optimal testing environment for students, March 12th will be a “Juniors Only” day. High school students in grades 9, 10, and 12 will not attend classes on March 12th, 2024. (all day).
The ACT administered on March 12th is identical to the one offered at various locations on Saturday mornings. Students will have the opportunity to have their scores sent to potential colleges they might be interested in applying to. This opportunity typically has a cost associated with it but will be free to all of our 11th-grade students.
The purpose of sending this communication is to ensure that all students are in attendance during the testing date, March 12th, by 7:30 am.
