Students prepared for this standardized test using Albert.IO, ACT Prep classes, and TA Tutoring.  The ACT is now a part of the accountability model for school rankings so it counts just like a State test for the school.  Students can use their scores for scholarships, to help with passing a state test and for college admission.
