This week your student received their Pre ACT Score from their English teachers. We will utilize these scores to assemble an accurate picture of growth concerning ACT-style knowledge and skills over time. We will be able to use the data to inform instruction for all of our students on a year-to-year basis.
Special thanks to GEFFE for funding the administration of the Pre ACT!!!
