The Michigan Department of Education
requires all current juniors to take the Michigan Merit Exam (MME) in March.
More information on testing dates and times coming soon.

As
part of the State of Michigan MEAP
testing program, all 9th graders are now required to be tested in Social
Studies in the fall of 9th grade. The test will be given at the end of
October. More information still to come.

ACT’s PLAN
test will be given to our 10th graders on Tuesday and
Wednesday, Nov 8 & 9, in the auditorium balcony. Here are some
particulars:
-A – K
will test on Tuesday, Nov 8
-L – Z
will test on Wednesday, Nov 9
-All KAMSC
students will take the test on Tuesday, Nov 8, and not go to KAMSC that
morning
-Testing
will begin at the start of 1st hour, so students should report
directly to the auditorium balcony
-Bell
schedule will remain same as usual for all students NOT testing
-Testing
will take approx. 2 hours and 20 minutes, and students will resume their
regular schedule when finished
-Counselors will be going into the 10th grade English classes for
students to complete their pre-test paperwork a couple of days before the
testing
-The PLAN test measures four academic areas
of English, mathematics, science reasoning, and reading. If you were in
Portage in 8th grade, you took a similar test called the ACT Explore Test.
Besides the academic areas tested, each student will have an opportunity to
complete an interest survey as part of the PLAN. Practice test questions and
additional information on the PLAN can be viewed at
www.act.org/plan.
Any questions, see Trish King in Counseling.
