Because Saturday ACT tests listed on this page are administered by ACT and not by Northwest ISD, test takers and proctors must follow ACT's most current health and safety guidelines. This may include masks wearing.
ACT’s most recent health and safety directives can be found at: https://www.act.org/content/act/en/products-and-services/the-act/test-day.html
