On Wednesday, March 12, 2025 all 11th grade students in the Canyons School District have the opportunity to take the ACT for free as part of the district’s college readiness focus. Jordan High 11th grade students are already registered for the ACT, which is used by many colleges and universities as part of their admission requirements, scholarship opportunities, and for NCAA eligibility. It is also a strong predictor of college success.
The Exam is scheduled for Wednesday, March 12, 2025. Our 9th, 10th and 12th grade students will be on a late start schedule this day (see below). Please be aware that the regular bell schedule will be modified; however, students are encouraged to consult with teachers, as needed, beginning at 1:05 P.M. The ACT is for juniors only.
