BHS JUNIORS - OPTIONAL ACT PREP
On April 8th, 2025 Juniors will be taking the ACT at Barrington High School. For students or families looking for additional prep we recommend that students use the free resources available from the ACT website.
In addition, many private companies offer fee-based test prep programs. There are a large variety of options that families can look into on their own, one such program is offered by Academic Tutoring & Test Prep. They will be offering an ONLINE prep program in the evenings for 8 weeks leading up to the April ACT, These online classes are open only to BHS students. More info can be found in this Flier.
