ACT Prep Class

Are you looking for that last minute push to improve your ACT score? Are you taking the ACT for the first time & want to know how to prepare?

Register Today for the PLCS ACT Prep Course

Papillion La Vista Community Schools is offering an ACT Prep Course! Tailored to meet the individual needs of each student, students can choose to attend a session every week or just a few. Research shows that preparation is a key to test taking. Students taking a test preparation course are better prepared for the ACT than those who have done no preparation. This new PLCS ACT Prep Course is taught by PLCS teachers with expertise in each of the subject areas.

Why should I take the PLCS ACT Prep Course?  During the 2023-24 school year, 95% of students who took the PLCS ACT Prep Course raised their score in at least one area.

This year we are also offering two courses: ACT Prep Level 1 and ACT Prep Level 2.  

  • ACT Prep Level 1: Suggested for any student who has not previously taken the ACT OR has scored a 26 or lower on the ACT.

  • ACT Prep Level 2: Recommended for any student who has taken the ACT Prep Level 1 course OR scored a 27 or higher on the ACT.  This course assumes students are proficient in time management and the basic content knowledge necessary for that subject area.
