Shout out to a dozen Robinson Middle students for achieving high scores on the ACT this year. These 12 students were recently recognized by ASMSA-TIP for their ACT scores - 4 had a composite score in the top 10% and 8 students were recognized for composite scores in applicable subject areas. Five of the 12 students attended the recognition ceremony held on June 8.
ASMSA's Talent Identification Program (ASMSA-TIP) is designed for gifted 7th graders in the state. All ASMSA-TIP participants receive a voucher to take the ACT as an "above-level" test, allowing the student to take a standardized assessment designed for a higher grade level.
Way to go, Senators! We're quite impressed!
