( this is the Tuesday after fall break)This test is held during the school day in person for all seniors. Testing will begin at 7:50, and students need to arrive to school by 7:30. Students are automatically signed up for the test, and there is no charge. Students need to bring an ACT approved calculator, several No.2 pencils, and photo ID. Seniors will be dismissed from school after the testing (approx. 12:00).<strong> All other grade levels will have a regular school day.\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>ACT electronics policy:<\/strong> No cell phones or other electronic devices including Apple watches are allowed in the testing room.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The ACT is a graduation requirement for all seniors<\/strong>. We have 67 seniors who are within five points of having a 21 composite. The 21 composite score earns students the TN Promise as well as a ready graduate distinction. Improving an ACT score by two or three points can mean $1000 of dollars in scholarships. Take a look at the college you hope to attend and see what a few points can mean to your bottom line. This opportunity for a free ACT test can pay off for students and families.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Please contact Ms. Estep (kestep@ortn.edu) with any questions about the ACT Senior Retake.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>INTERSESSION &#8211;\u00a0 <\/strong>Intersession will be held the first four days of Fall Break from 8:00 until 11:00, and will function similarly to OR.
