summer is coming to an end and you're beginning to think of your plans for the next school year. it’s inevitable for you to think about your students and what test preps are going to be like for them this year. the 2021 act shows that things are slowly returning to “normal”. while there are now changes implemented on the test, two things remain the same: 1) students will need to prepare for the act, and 2) you can help them prepare.

here's everything you need to know about helping your students for the act in 2022 and 2023.
