The state Department of Public Instruction posted the results for recently graduated seniors on its website.

According to a story from The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the percentage of seniors who took the ACT is higher than it's ever been. Still, the state average score is 22.2, so RUSD students are a little under that benchmark.
