Commerce Public Schools would like to announce the selection of the ACT test for Juniors during the 2020-2021 school year.  Our school district plans to administer the ACT test in spring 2021 to eligible juniors as part of the state contract with the Oklahoma State Department of Education and ACT.
Last year over 95% of Oklahoma schools selected to administer the ACT.  Our district believes this is an excellent opportunity for all juniors to take the ACT at no cost to them or their families.
