A staff member for Round Lake CUSD 116 announced an ACT incentive program at Round Lake High School to raise the school's ACT average from 15.5 to 17 on the April test, offering VIP breakfasts, raffle entries for $50 Panther swag vouchers, prom passes and free parking for top scorers and highest growth.
A staff member for Round Lake CUSD 116 announced an ACT incentive program at Round Lake High School designed to raise the school’s average ACT score from 15.5 to 17 on the April test. The program offers recognition and prizes for top scorers and students showing the greatest growth.
The staff member said the district has “committed to raising our ACT score from a 15.5 to a 17 on the April test.” The announcement framed the effort as a final push before testing and emphasized its significance for students and the community: “We know that reaching this goal will have a lasting impact, lasting impact, not just on you as a student, but for our school as a whole and our community.”
Under the incentive program, students who earn a 30 or higher on the ACT or who show the most growth will be invited to a VIP Panther breakfast and could receive one of several prizes. The staff member listed potential awards as raffle entries for a chance to win a $50 Panther swag voucher, prom passes or a free parking pass. “We will honor not only those who achieve top scores, but also those who show the most growth,” the staff member said.
The staff member described the announcement as a final motivational message: “Panthers, this is the final moment. All the hard work you've put in and pride you've shown lead to this moment. I'm incredibly proud of our staff and students and cannot wait to see the results. Let's finish strong and make history together.”
The program’s timeline is tied to the April ACT test; additional implementation details such as eligibility verification, the number of prizes, and how “most growth” will be measured were not specified in the announcement.
