Missing ACT tests are found
Missing ACT tests are found, but their whereabouts over the last two months remains a mystery.
Remember those missing ACT exams?
They've finally shown up at the Iowa-based testing service's headquarters, but officials there say they have no idea where the test sheets have been all this time.
Their whereabouts over the last two months remain a mystery - at least as far as ACT officials are saying.
Test results for 182 students who took the college readiness exam at Upper Darby High School on Sept. 13 were declared missing late last month, though parents had been asking questions for longer than that.
"We've been working with the postal service to try to track these down over the past several weeks," ACT spokesman Edward Colby said Thursday. "We just don't know whether they got put in the wrong place and someone discovered them. Obviously we're very happy that they are here."
He said he couldn't provide the date that they were postmarked or precisely what day they arrived.
Colby said the test sheets will be scored and students will receive the results. The testing service also offered a free retest date, and students who took that test will get those scores as well, he said.
ACT has sent out letters to parents, informing them that the test sheets were found.
