The Vision of Trussville City Schools
ACT PREP CLASS Preparing for the September 12th Test
6:00-8:00 P.M.
8 classes: Tuesdays (English/reading/writing/science instruction) and
Thursdays (math instruction)
The third weekly sessions will be actual timed practice tests with analysis Since this first session approaches quickly, we ask that everyone purchase your own books. Therefore, the
NONREFUNDABLE fee for the course is $230. Please purchase The Real ACT, 3rd edition. Although the fee
covers this test session only, we allow for students to continue coming to each session throughout this
CURRENT school year at no additional cost.
We have designed our test prep to offer 2 different sessions each night. Session A will be for beginner testers, as
well as those who have scored 23 or less in an area, and Session B will be for advanced level testers. In order to
attend Session B, you must have a composite score of 24 in an area. This is a fluid program, meaning you may
have scored a composite of 24 in math and need to attend Session B for math; however, you may have only
scored a 19 in Reading and will attend Session A for that material. See schedule below for the session that will
benefit you the most. You must have your ACT score analysis sheet WITH YOU in order to attend the Session B
classes. This will enable the instructor to give more precise instruction for your needs, based on your analysis.
This is also recommended for you if you’ll be in the A section (although this is not required for this section). It is
also suggested that Session B students also purchase Barron’s ACT 36: Aiming for the Perfect Score, as the
instructors will be using that book with you in addition to the other book.

Thank you Faith Community Fellowship !
Members worked with Dr. Evans on the Paine Campus to help landscape an area
by the cafeteria. The Faith group gave the overgrown area great attention and
will come back again later in the year to keep it under control. In addition,
thanks to Pastor Steve for the heavy duty battery jump starter for carline!
Thank you Faith!
We appreciate your support!
