LCSS Exceeds State ACT Composite Score

The latest ACT results for Tennessee show progress in college and career readiness of graduates and reflect the impact of the work by the state to encourage seniors to retake the exam and the focus our high schools have been committed to.

Across subject areas on the college-entrance exam, performance rose in notable ways. Locally, Lawrence County Schools have initiated numerous activities and incentives to ensure our students are college and career ready.

The Tennessee Department of Education (TDOE) reported that a calculation based on students’ best scores lifted the statewide average composite score to 20.1 on the exam’s 36-point scale, a 0.2 increase from 19.9 last year.

Lawrence County students had significant increase from a 19.77 composite to 20.22 for the Class of 2018.  Still, these results should also be considered in the context of results released by the ACT organization in early September.

Both the TDOE and ACT data have important insights to offer.  Seniors across LCSS had the opportunity to retake the ACT in October to attempt to raise their score which results in greater funding at the collegiate level.

Director of Schools, Mr. Johnny McDaniel shares, “Improving ACT scores is an important focus for me and is something that our schools have taken very seriously which is evident with the increase we have seen.  I am extremely proud of our students that have worked diligently to improve their score.”  A 21 composite score is needed to qualify for up to $16,000 in HOPE Scholarship funds from the state.

Rather than focus on how many students surpass scientifically determined benchmark scores, Tennessee as a state is focused on achieving a strategic goal: an average statewide composite score of 21 by 2020.

This year’s rise to an average composite of 20.1 represents an important mile marker on this journey. It is the goal of Lawrence County Schools to not only meet the statewide composite but to exceed ACT composite expectations.
