The ACT is designed for students who are taking a
college preparatory curriculum and plan to attend
college after high school graduation. The ACT

As part of
the Michigan Merit Exam (MME), all Michigan 11th
grade students including Onekama High School
students take the ACT in the Spring of their Junior
year at no cost to the student or district.
Students passing the MME with a Level 1 or Level 2
score will be eligible for the Michigan Promise
Scholarship in the amount of $4,000.00
Students in
their Sophomore and Junior years have the
opportunity to take the PreSAT/NMSQT Qualifier Test
in October. Also, they can take the ACT-Plan in the
spring. Both tests are offered at Onekama
Consolidated Schools at a minimal cost to students.
Scores from both tests can now be used as dual
enrollment qualifying scores according to the
Michigan Department of Education.
During the spring of each year students in 1st
through 8th grade are administered the IOWA Test.
This test is designed to show the current level of
academic achievement and growth for individual
students. These results are used to assist staff
and administration in making sure the proper core
content materials are being taught in the classroom,
and each student is performing to their optimal
potential
