Dear Parent/Guardian,
As partners in your child’s education, it is important to ensure that they are prepared for each step along their educational journey. One way to determine student preparedness is through assessment, and therefore we will be administering the ACT Aspire to our 7th and 8th grade students on the following dates:
April 17th, 18th and 19th
ACT Aspire will give us important information that will allow us to determine how your child is progressing at their current grade level, as well as along their overall path toward future college and career readiness.
ACT Aspire will tell us which important skills, abilities, and knowledge your student has now, and which ones still need to be learned in order to be successful in school in the future. ACT Aspire will help your child’s teacher understand where your child is succeeding, as well as where extra help or academic focus is needed. ACT Aspire will also provide specific suggestions for improving skills.
Your child will be taking the ACT Aspire English, math, reading, science and writing assessment between April 17th-19th. Please be sure that they are well rested and arrive to school on time those days in order to help them do their best.
Thank you,
Rachel Morrison
School Counselor
