A national tool for evaluating college readiness is the ACT score. The results for the 2009 graduating class are now in, and being reported by ACT at http://www.act.org.
On a national level some 23% of all students tested met the readiness benchmark in all four subjects, as compared with 15% in Louisiana.
Louisiana Composite Scores
Asian American/Pacific Islander... 22.3
Caucasian American/White.......... 21.5
National Average Composite.......21.1
Hispanic ......................................... 20.3
Other/no response......................... 20.2
Louisiana Average Composite... 20.1
American Indian/Alaska Native... 19.4
African American/Black................17.3
It is very important as parents and alums that we are aware of these scoring trends and that proper steps are taken to improve our results.
We must consider that Louisiana's Tuition Opportunity Program for Students (TOPS) requires a score equal to the prior year's state average to be considered for the OPPORTUNITY AWARD. Currently a minimum score of 20 is required.
As college costs continue to increase, scholarship money can not and should not be left on the table due to lack of performance.

What i do not understood is in truth how you're not really a lot more neatly-favored than you may be right now. You're very intelligent.
You already know thus significantly on the subject of this subject, made me in my opinion imagine it
from numerous varied angles. Its like men and women don't seem to be involved unless it's something to do
with Woman gaga! Your own stuffs excellent. Always deal with it up!
