YCCS Rewards High Scores

DSC_2953 After their all-day testing, one of our Juniors was rewarded with a $400 gift card to Best Buy! The student, D’Angelo Luciano rejoiced with pride when he was informed of how he exceeded the Illinois State Benchmarks on his ACT test. Many colleges look at a students’ ACT score as a measurement of their “aptitude” to do well. With his high score, Mr. Luciano will be sought after by many Colleges and Universities.

With the help of our College Transition Specialist, D’Angelo Luciano will also be working on scholarship applications for when he graduates. With proof of being enrolled in college, YCCS has committed to provide $200 more toward D’Angelo’s education.

This year, twenty students are scheduled to take the same State tests that D’Angelo Luciano took. All of these students will be informed, and will have the same opportunity to receive rewards for their achievement. This year, the test will take place in April.

Congratulations to D’Angelo Luciano and his family, keep working hard!
