Sophomores

Your sophomore year should be a year of personal growth.  In addition to working hard in school and being involved with a variety of activities, try to really concentrate on your abilities, interests, and aptitudes. Look for opportunities to further develop your skills and talents.

You will be taking the PreACT this year.  Take the test seriously, as the results will direct you on how to better prepare yourself for next year's ACT.  The ACT is very important for college acceptance.
