ACT Offered to 11th Grade Students At No Cost (DEADLINE to Sign Up)

All 11th grade students (third year of high school) are being offered the opportunity to take the ACT  at their high school during the regular school week at no cost, based on action by the S.C. General  Assembly. However, students must sign up in advance in order to take the ACT. Horry County high  school students will take the ACT at their school Tuesday, April 19.   In order to participate in ACT testing, your child must be signed up at the school by March 1,  2016.  To sign up for the test at Aynor High you may contact your child’s guidance counselor  or your child may sign up in the guidance department. The ACT will provide the scores to colleges as their college entrance exam. If your child has an  Individualized Education Plan (IEP) requiring accommodations for testing, the high school will assist  him/her in applying for accommodations.  Only those accommodations approved by ACT will result  in college reportable scores. Accommodations that can be approved for this administration are the  same as the accommodations for ACT national administrations.  If your child is under age 18, you,  as parent or guardian, must authorize the school to release that information to ACT for the purpose  of applying for accommodations. If you have any questions regarding the ACT and your student, please call the guidance office at  your high school. Read more about the ACT at ACTstudent.org
