ACT Tip of the Day 🎒

Pack tonight so tomorrow is stress-free.

The ACT will be at our school in the Event Center, and testing begins at 8:25 AM. Plan to arrive early and be ready.

Bring your calculator (and charger if needed) and wear comfortable layers.

Go to bed early — sleep helps more than last-minute cramming.

Be on time. Be prepared. Be confident. đŸĻ…✨

Math shortcut: plug in answer choices.
If the question has variables and answer choices are numbers, try the middle option and see if it works. Fast and effective.

ACT Tip of the Day 📚
English quick checks that score points fast:
Subject-verb agreement, commas after introductory phrases, apostrophes, and sentence boundaries (run-ons and fragments).

ACT Tip of the Day 👖

Wear comfortable clothes on the test day.

You’ll be sitting for several hours. Choose layers in case the room is too warm or too cold. Avoid brand-new shoes or anything distracting.

The goal is to focus on the test—not your outfit.

Comfort = focus. Focus = points. đŸĻ…✨

Will started us off strong at OYE this week! He took 3 gilts and all 3 made the hill!! For reference, the classes have 50-60 hogs in them, about 20 from each class make the "hill"! Today one of his light cross gilts placed 2nd in her class and 18th overall out of about 300+ gilts! That is an awesome 2 days!! Hadlee Scott also took her light cross gilt but unfortunately the gilt was hurt and she couldn't show today. Congratulations Hadlee and Will on a successful show season!
