District 211 Students Perfect on ACT
At its November 20, 2008 meeting, the Board of Education honored five District 211 students for achieving a 36, the highest possible composite score, on the ACT examination. Conant High School student Jared Bauman, Fremd High School students Michelle Lundholm and Sahana Rao, Schaumburg High School student Amanda Rooney, and Palatine High School student James Silveira were recognized as five of only 51 students in Illinois to receive a 36 on the ACT during the 2007-2008 school year.
The ACT, which is taken by nearly 60 percent of America's college-bound students as well as all junior students in Illinois as part of the Prairie State Achievement Examination, 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 tests.
