As mentioned in the summary above, ACHS administers these tests to students in grades 9-12 at three different points in the school year. These tests will be offered to students at all four campuses of ACHS: King Street, Minnie Howard, Satellite, and Chance for Change (CFC). Our School Testing Coordinators (STCs) will coordinate with each campus to determine who will be testing. Each of these testing days will require schedule adjustments for students.
