Attention Juniors, the ACT will be on February 27th. 

The ACT will be administered to all 11th graders on February 27, 2024 (Tuesday). This is a mandatory administration provided by the state of NC.  Juniors are asked to bring their calculator with them on the day of the test. We are also asking for donations of snack foods during the small breaks.  

Regarding the rest of the student body, they will stay in their first-period class for the entire 3.5-hour test duration. Students will not meet f2f with second period, but assignments will be posted. Lunch will be held after the testing locations have been dismissed in courtesy towards the testing students. The test is expected to conclude by noon. If you have any questions please reach out to Mrs. Ray at dray@eastwakeacademy.org.
