Free ACT Prep Materials through TEL
The ACT is a standardized college entrance exam that measures your knowledge and skills in English, mathematics, reading, and science reasoning, as well as your ability to apply these skills to future academic tasks. Many colleges require and/or accept the ACT for admission. Check with the colleges you're interested in to learn more about specific requirements.

The mission of Governor's Early Literacy Foundation (GELF) is to strengthen early literacy in Tennessee. In partnership with Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, GELF gives all preschoolers in Tennessee the opportunity to receive books in the mail at no cost to families. Our vision is a Tennessee where all children have access to the resources, guidance and support they need to become lifelong learners.
