different activities for each grade level on Tuesday, April 15.

Report to OHS at 7:20am for Pre-ACT Secure and Forward Testing

School or Classes - Attendance is not required.

All sophomores are required to take the Pre-ACT Secure and Forward Tests on Tuesday, April 15, 2025. The test will give you a chance to assess your college-readiness skills and compare your progress from last year. In addition, it will help you get a better handle on your academic progress as you prepare to take the ACT exam next year as a junior.
The letter linked above shares all the details about the testing day for all sophomores. Please note that, buses will run as normal and students should report to their assigned rooms by 7:20am. While you will be dismissed at about 12:30pm, similar to our term exam days, you are welcome to eat lunch and hang out in the Fieldhouse or Cafeteria 150 until the buses depart at 2:47pm or until your after-school activities begin.
Since you took the ACT test in March, you do not have classes or school on Tuesday, April 15. However, consider participating in some individual activities connected to your Academic and Career Planning. This could include:
- Completing a
Job Shadow.
- Touring a
college campus.
- Signing up for
the Summer School college application support class (Click here for more information).
- Registering
for the Direct Admissions Information Night on Wednesday, April 16 (Click here for more details).
All seniors will participate in our annual Life Ready simulation known as Reality Check. This experience requires each senior to reflect on their career and college intentions and figure out how to navigate the realities of everyday life and expenses. It’s a blast!
Seniors should report to the Fieldhouse lobby at their designated time outlined in the letter above. The entire experience takes about two hours to complete and you are welcome to leave at the conclusion of the simulation.
Thank you to our friends at Bank Five Nine and our community partners from across the Oconomowoc area who partner with our team to make this experience possible.
