ACT and SAT Test Prep

ACT Prep, ACT WorkKeys Prep, and SAT Prep are available in Edgenuity Courseware through the Virtual Tutor options. The Virtual Tutor course offerings are customized into smaller, concentrated categories or strands that allow students to experience greater flexibility over what is assigned.  The courses are designed to provide an “on-line tutor” for students; as a result many of the options are enabled to make the courses self-managed by students.  Please note these courses are not set up to provide course credit for students.
