ACT & SAT Testing
Standardized Testing is a requirement for most college application processes. The vast majority of all colleges accept either ACT and/or SAT scores, so focusing on one test or another, or both, are all good strategies. Although there are many paid test prep opportunities available to students and families outside of Parkway West High School, we offer several FREE test prep opportunities at West High as well.
