ACT Testing

ACT/SAT testing – These two tests are given during the year to determine readiness to do college work. Seniors need one of the two tests to be admitted to most universities. Usually it does not matter which test the student takes; however, one of them should have been taken by now. Juniors will begin to take their SAT/ACT this spring. It is not too late for seniors, but please note the following test dates:
