We are getting closer to ACT time! On Tuesday, April 12th all CHS, HHS, and Access to Success Junior students will take the ACT at the Lewis and Clark Fairgrounds and PAL students will test at PAL (unless otherwise arranged due to testing accommodations).
Students will pre-register for the ACT online during the school day. If your student misses this opportunity during the school day, they can complete it at home on their own and they can obtain directions for this at their school. Students will simply be able to make an ACT account, log in, and answer basic questions about their academics and where they would like (free) test scores sent. It is the expectation that each student completes this pre-registration process prior to April 12.
The Prep Booklet online –Your student can print this off and use it to help prepare.
The Information for Examinees website has an online practice test that your student could take.
This pamphlet tells students to access this site for My ACT Academy, now also called Access ACT.
