ACT - We highly recommend students take the ACT test during the second semester of their Junior year. This is the time in high school careers when students are taking ACT-specific courses. This also gives students a little bit of time to retake the test if their scores are not as high as they would like. To see upcoming test dates and registration deadlines, click on the "Upcoming Events" link. To register for the ACT test go to www.actstudent.org. You will need the Nodaway Valley School code which is 161870.
