prepare for the June 10th ACT exam. Here are the date and times for these sessions:


Session #1: From May 15th to May 25th on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday
evenings from 5:00-7:30 pm.
Session #2: From June 5th to June 8th from 9:00 AM-12:30 PM.

ACT Boot Camp Cost and Registration:

● The cost for each session is $50, and the cost for free and reduced lunch students is
$25. Payments for sessions are NONREFUNDABLE.
● Signups for the ACT Boot Camp will begin on Friday, April 7th.

● To reserve their spot, students must fill out the digital registration form (I will send this out

Grove High School.

Benefits of ACT Book Camp:

● Students will be able to complete a full-length ACT mock exam.
● Students will learn strategies to help them be successful on each part of the ACT exam.
● Students will have the opportunity to work with experienced educators who are
knowledgeable in helping students be successful on the ACT exam.
● ACT tutoring typically costs around $25-50 an hour. The ACT Boot Camp provides 12-15
hours of tutoring for a fraction of the cost of the standard tutoring rate.


Importance of the ACT:

● Success on the ACT can help students gain admission into college.
● The ACT can help students earn eligibility for required college courses in high school
and college. This keeps students and parents from paying for remedial courses that do
not count towards a student’s degree plan.
● Success on the ACT helps students earn scholarships, which saves money for students
and parents.
● Success on the ACT is linked to increased college readiness, retention, and degree
completion.
