The 2016-17 school year will be a milestone for students of all ages, but it is an especially significant year for those high school students who will be taking the ACT college admission test for the first time. If your child is planning to take the ACT this year, now is the time for them to prepare. Similarly, when working with Raise the Grade, parents can expect to be prepared for this milestone as well.
We want to be a resource for families beyond tutoring services. Amongst other topics, in our weekly blog posts we’ll be talking about ACT tips, dates, and reminders. You can also like us on Facebook or LinkedIn to get even more academic news and information.
For starters, keep these testing and registration dates in mind. The following testing schedule is compiled directly from www.act.org. While the September 10th testing date has passed, there will be five additional testing dates this academic year.
