In alignment with our Portrait of a Graduate, Akron Public Schools works to ensure students are College Ready, Employed, Enlisted, or Enrolled. Over the last four years, Akron Public Schools has paid for all Seniors to take the Fall ACT College Entrance Test at every high school. Due to the National pandemic and our 100% remote start for the Fall, we are not able to provide our Seniors with this opportunity. However, Akron Public Schools has chosen to provide each Senior who is interested in taking the October ACT College Entrance Test with a waiver. This waiver will allow for your student to take the test free of charge.

Please see the attached letter from Summit County Public Health.
