Perfect Again: Second Covington Catholic Student Scores 36 on ACT

Covington Catholic High School is celebrating its second student to achieve a perfect score on the ACT.

 

The Park Hills school announced Tuesday that Logan Boyle scored a 36 on the national standardized test that was taken in October. He joins senior Adrian Neff who also scored 36 earlier this year.

 

Nationally, while the actual number of students earning a composite score of 36 varies from year to year, on average, less than one-tenth of 1 percent of students who take the ACT earns the top score. Among test takers, only 1,407 of nearly 1.85 million students earned a composite score of 36. The ACT consists of tests in English, mathematics, reading and science. 

 

ACT test scores are accepted by all major U.S. colleges. Exceptional scores of 36 provide colleges with evidence of student readiness for the academic rigors that lie ahead.

 

Boyle is very active at CCH and a leader in many clubs and organizations. He is the vice president of the Magnified Giving Club, Academic Team captain, on which he has competed at the varsity level since his freshman year, TEAMS competition team captain for the freshmen/sophomore team, Culture Club secretary, member of the National Honor Society, National English Honor Society, and recipient of a community service award varsity letter for the past two years.  He volunteers with New Perceptions and Special Olympics, and is a Northern Kentucky Academic League moderator for elementary schools.

 

The last three summers, Logan has participated in ND Vision, a leadership conference at the University of Notre Dame where he spends a week each summer on campus and meets with students from around the country.  They participate in various workshops and have a variety of speakers all while learning about how they can contribute to the betterment of society.  Logan’s top choice for colleges are Notre Dame and Vanderbilt where he plans to study medicine.
