The ACT may be repeated as many times as the student
wishes to take it in order to improve his/her score.
The ACT is the single test most directly tied to the
amount of scholarship money a student will qualify
for. Students should have their best score by the end
of their junior year in order to meet early admission
and scholarship deadlines for college.

ATTN: Restricted Drivers and Farm Permits
When the school has an activity on the weekend you cannot drive. School is not actually in session. We had a concerned citizen raise a question about kids driving to weekend practices. I have checked with the City Attorney, Kerwin Spencer, and he stated under the current driving laws pertaining to these types of licenses, it would be illegal for a student to drive. This would include practices, film sessions, or any other event at the school. To make it easy to remember, only when school is in session Monday thru Friday is it legal to drive to the school. If school is not in session, it is not legal. Thanks for your cooperation - if you have questions please feel free to contact me.

student(s) and utilize the turn-a-round just east of the student
drop-off zone.
Your safety and the safety of the students are of
utmost importance to us! If ticketed, we are told the cost is $179.50. Save money and keep everyone safe!
