Free Practice ACT Available for OCHS Juniors

Owensboro Catholic High School is partnering with Sylvan Learning Center to provide a FREE practice ACT test for the high school juniors. The test will be conducted on Monday, March 8, 2010.

Parents can help their sons and daughters prepare for this test by reminding them to take this free opportunity seriously and encouraging them to do their best.

Results will be available about two weeks after the test is administered. Parents should review their children’s scores and talk to their students about areas of strength and opportunities for improvement. Students should be encouraged to take advantage of opportunities to make improvements before taking the test again.

The free ACT is being made available to OCHS students through Sylvan Learning Center. After the tests have been scored and submitted to OCHS, parents will then have the option of contacting Sylvan for a more in-depth conversation about their students’ score and/or meeting with a Sylvan representative on site at OCHS. Sylvan also offers individualized tutoring and ACT Prep Courses, but there is no obligation involved with this service.

Again, we are pleased to be able to partner with Sylvan and offer this opportunity to our high school juniors. We want to express our appreciation to parents and community partners who support our expectation of success for all students.

If you have any questions, please contact Assistant Principal, Kurt Osborne, at 684-3215.
