Beginning in January, Lemont High School will offer ACT 36, a test preparation program designed to familiarize students with the ACT. Registration has begun for ACT 36, which is open to all Lemont High School juniors, as well as juniors from other area schools.
Students may choose between two seven-week programs, each of which consists of two-hour weekly sessions that run from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at Lemont High School. The first session begins on Tuesday, January 21, and will meet each Tuesday through March 11. The second session will meet on Wednesdays from Wednesday, January 22, through March 12. Students in both sessions will take a Practice ACT during the week of March 3; that week’s session will run from 5:30-9 p.m.
The course costs $360 for the seven sessions, which includes the textbook and Practice ACT. An additional week will be added if school is cancelled due to inclement weather or other circumstances.
The deadline to register for one of the school’s ACT 36 programs is January 6 or once sections are filled. Students must register and pay online. A late fee will be added to registrations after January 6.

The goal of ACT 36 is to give students the confidence, strategies and content necessary to score their personal best on the ACT. The course does this by familiarizing students with the elements of the ACT, from content and timing to pacing and strategies. The course also reviews difficult concepts, specifically in English and mathematics, and allows students an opportunity to take a practice exam. All ACT 36 instructors are carefully trained and certified.
The Illinois State Board of Education mandates that all school districts participate in an annual statewide assessment. Lemont High School’s Class of 2026 will take the ACT on Wednesday, April 9.
