Testing

All Lake Park students will take the ACT during the spring of junior year. The ACT is provided free of charge by Lake Park high school and parents do NOT need to sign students up to take it. Families can choose for their student to take the ACT outside of school or if they would like their student to take the SAT they can sign them up for that as well. In this case families will need to sign the student up on their own and pay for the test(s) of their choice. Colleges that require test scores for entrance will accept either the ACT or SAT.
