ACT- American College Testing

The ACT® test assesses high school students’ general educational development and their ability to complete college-level work. The multiple-choice tests cover four skill areas: English, mathematics, reading, and science. The Writing Test, which is optional, measures skill in planning and writing a short essay. Students are encouraged to take the ACT® test once in their junior year and again in their senior year in time to meet college and scholarship application deadlines.

Test dates and registration deadlines for the 2025-2026 school year can be found here.
