ZAPS ACT Prep Course

What do you wish you had done different during your high school years?  That is one question that we ask seniors through a survey at the end of the year to help evaluate what we are doing and to identify areas that need improvement.  Each year one of the common pieces of feedback we receive is that students wish they would have had more ACT/ SAT preparation options.  We have consistently heard from ACT representatives that the best preparation is a rigorous high school curriculum, but we wanted to try to be responsive to the student feedback we have received. As a result, we investigated several test prep course options to try to find one that would work with us on scheduling, be helpful for students and would be a cost effective alternative.

We were thrilled to find ZAPS, a test prep company, who has worked with us for multiple years.  In the past we always held the course live at WKHS during OGT late start mornings, but this year we do not have late starts and so we began looking at how to schedule it that would work for the most number of students possible.  The result is that Zaps will be providing the test-prep course in a webinar format.  All students will receive an ACT study guide and practice test questions for each subject area that will be used when participating in the live webinar.  The course will be held online on Sunday and Monday, February 28 and 29th, from 6:30 to 9:00pm.  

An informational letter including registration instructions was e-mailed to parents . The cost of this ACT webinar prep course is $79.99. If you are interested in participating, please be sure to register as soon as possible to make certain that you don't get closed out of the course.  The absolute deadline to register is February 22nd.  The test prep materials will be distributed from the Counseling Center on Thursday, February 25th.  If you plan on participating, you need to register online at http://register.doorwaytocollege.com/webinars.
