Dear Parents and Students,
The process of applying to college can be intimidating, but many students and parents worry about one aspect
in particular: the ACT® test. A great ACT® score can open doors to funding and admission. With colleges more
selective and expensive than ever, an investment in your student’s ACT® score is an investment in their future.
We are offering our students the opportunity to partner with TorchPrep™, an innovative test training program
that cracks the code on improving ACT® scores. Make good use of the extra time this summer by enrolling in
TorchPrep’s Summer Intensive™ program. Through strategy-driven training focused on repetition,
customization, and student motivation, TorchPrep™ will help your student overcome the ACT®.
Whether you’re trying to get into the college of your choice or secure scholarship money, TorchPrep™ is
worth it!
