Guidance Monthly News & Notes

Sophomores -- Sign up for the PreACT Today!

The Intermediate High School will be administering the PreACT to sophomores on Saturday, March 29^th.  Taking this test is a good way for students to prepare for the ACT, an admissions exam accepted at most colleges and universities.  The PreACT lets students know academic strengths, career interests, and how well they are prepared for colleges they may be interested in attending.

By becoming familiar with the math, English, reading, and science sections of the PreACT, students typically score higher on the ACT, which can enhance admissions and scholarship opportunities.  In addition, the PreACT highlights student strengths and weaknesses by providing personalized feedback on academic skills and post-secondary planning.

Visit  https://www.act.org/ for practice questions and additional information.  If your child is interested in taking the PreACT, please complete registration form linked SignUpSheet2025.pdf  and return it with payment to the IHS Guidance Office no later than Wednesday, March 26^th.  Please contact the Guidance Office at 724-452-6042 ext. 2065 for more information.
