ACT WorkKeys
Attention Juniors and Parents: ACT & WorkKeys Information
Junior year is an important milestone, and we want to make sure you’re prepared for the opportunities ahead!
ACT:
The ACT is a college admissions exam that assesses skills in English, math, reading, and science. It helps students explore college options and scholarship opportunities. Preparing for this test can make a big difference, and the results are valuable for planning your future.
**WorkKeys:**
The WorkKeys assessment measures job readiness skills that are critical in the workplace. It’s a great way to showcase career readiness and opens the door to earning a National Career Readiness Certificate (NCRC), a credential recognized by many employers.
Both assessments provide valuable insights for your future—whether you're heading to college, exploring careers, or both. Please let us know if you have questions. We’re here to support you every step of the way!
