A student in a jersey and a teacher high five each other in a crowded gym

A recent Raymore-Peculiar High School assembly became a memorable celebration for senior Kadyn Johnson, who was recognized for an extraordinary academic achievement. Principal Scott Bacon presented Kadyn with a custom jersey bearing the number 36, celebrating a remarkable  perfect 36 ACT superscore. The surprise recognition drew enthusiastic applause from classmates and culminated in a celebratory high five.

A perfect ACT superscore is achieved by fewer than 1% of students nationwide. Reaching that milestone reflects exceptional performance across the ACT’s subject areas, along with the preparation, persistence, and consistency required to perform at such a high level.

For Kadyn, preparation began long before test day. Access to study resources, a strong academic foundation, and experience with standardized testing all played a role in building confidence.

“Having access to study materials, a solid foundation of English and math from Ray-Pec, and years of test-taking experience helped me to feel as prepared as possible to succeed on the ACT,” said Kadyn.
