ACTs? .... at 12? Yep!

This past fall we received a letter from Duke University, explaining that Dayne had caught their attention due to her high MAP (Missouri Assessment Program) test results -- specifically because she was in the 98th percentile ranking for math!

Not knowing really what the program was, I looked online and found this summary:


"The 7th Grade Talent Search identifies academically talented seventh graders based on standardized test scores achieved while attending elementary or middle school. Candidates are invited to take the ACT or the SAT college entrance exam as seventh graders, which allows them greater insight into their academic abilities."

We are pretty dang proud of Dayne's scores and even more so of the class she showed by sending the below email to her 6th grade teacher:

Yesterday we got the results of her ACT and she scored a composite score of 14!  I'd be willing to bet I'd struggle to get a 14!

So proud of her and so excited to see what she will do with herself since she has already distinguished herself as a very bright little girl!
