Many students are aware that the Act has been moved to the 25th of march, some are calm about it while others are trying to study out of pure thought because the ACT is a way to pass high school, students are more stressed than others because of the movement of the ACT.

“If students came back after taking the ACT the school should have some extra credit to work on,” local art teacher, Kevin Gentry, said.

Many teachers don’t all agree on what Kevin Gentry said, which might cause some arguments within the Karns high school staff.

“It interrupted 2 academic days… students can ask to take the ACT for free off of campus,” Amy Davis says, “Sleep in and don’t come in the morning and come in the afternoon for a sense of normalcy.”

“I would not mind because it would not ruin my schedule,” Mrs. Newman, the librarian, said.

Multiple teachers are fine with it as long as schedules are still in place, the students are aware of the test movement and some don’t want to go to school on ACT day, which will impact their attendance, and it will go on their school records.

The American college test is a high-school testing requirement for graduation, and very helpful in getting a job. Students can retake the ACT in the fall if they don’t like their score.

The ACT takes 3 hours and 30 minutes and consists of English, Mathematics, science, and U.S history. The students are restricted from touching their phones and returning to conversations with their friends. They can’t on any devices which makes them bored and can’t talk because of the ACT testing area, they can’t leave until the entire building is done with the ACT.

“It went smooth, good, and I hope I did good on the ACT,” Chase Gregg, a student at Karns High School said.

Many students took the ACT the first time, which gives them a reason not to be at school again but the school does not allow them to leave until all tests are done and materials are gathered, which frustrates students because they want to be on their phones.
