We are committed to equipping students with every advantage on their path to academic and collegiate success. In alignment with this mission, we are proud to announce a strategic initiative that underscores our dedication to student achievement: three full school days during the upcoming fall semester reserved exclusively for ACT preparation.

This focused academic investment gives students critical practice time, along with essential test-taking strategies needed to succeed on the ACT. By integrating structured, high-impact test preparation into the school calendar, St. Bernard is taking an intentional step to ensure that our students are thoroughly prepared and confident.

To deliver this initiative with the highest level of expertise, we are excited to partner with Henson Test Prep, a renowned organization recognized for its proven results and a distinguished faculty. Their team includes professionals with noteworthy academic accolades and deep experience in standardized test preparation. Henson Test Prep’s approach blends content mastery with strategic insights, giving students the tools to maximize their performance and achieve their highest potential scores.

The three designated ACT Prep Days will include:

  • Targeted instruction on the ACT’s core sections
  • Realistic practice under test-like conditions
  • Strategies for time management, question analysis, and performance improvement

By building this time directly into the school year, St. Bernard ensures that all students—regardless of outside commitments—have equal access to high-quality preparation. This initiative reflects our core belief that standardized testing success is not just about hard work, but also about preparation, strategy, and confidence.

We are proud to lead with innovation and intention, and we look forward to seeing our students excel.
