Juniors! The standardized test, the ACT, will be given out to all 11th graders on March 15th.The test will include an assortment of questions about reading, math, science, and history, but there is less math included this year and the writing portion is optional. There is a practice test available for students to take so they are prepared for the ACT. The test is required for all students and helps with applying to college with a lower GPA. Once March comes, the test will be in a new format.
The test will take a half day. Students can sign up online and get more information at www.actstudent.org. In addition, you can sign up in the bookstore for $56.50. The sign up deadline is December 18th.
