Students Perfect on ACT

  • The American College Test (ACT), which is taken by nearly 60 percent of America’s college-bound students, is comprised of tests in English, mathematics, reading, and science reasoning.  Each test is scored on a scale of 1-36, and a student’s score is the average of the four test scores.  On average, less than two-tenths of one percent of all ACT test-takers earns a top score.  Over the past 22 years, District 211 has had 145 students achieve this outstanding accomplishment.

    At its June 17, 2021 meeting, the Board of Education recognized Palatine High School student Andrew Tobin, and William Fremd High School student Garrick Kung, who scored a composite score of 36 (the highest possible score) on the ACT.
