The Benet Academy Class of 2007 posted an average composite score of 28.2 on the A.C.T., with one third of this year’s graduating seniors receiving a composite score of 30 or above.

This is the fourth consecutive year Benet Academy has posted a composite ACT score of 28 or higher.

All Benet students take the examination during their junior year.

The Illinois composite average was 20.5 and nationwide the average was 21.2.

“While these scores alone do not reflect all of the many outstanding accomplishments of our talented students and teachers,” Stephen Marth, principal of Benet Academy stated, “it is gratifying to see that their hard work and dedication has resulted in such a wonderful achievement. We applaud our students and all who have been instrumental in encouraging their pursuit of academic excellence.”
