What is ACT Success Saturdays

Oklahoma Citizens for Education (OCE) believes test prep can be energizing—not exhausting. ACT Success Saturdays is a 4-week, community-powered prep program that supports students, uplifts teachers, and strengthens school-community bonds.

Why It Matters?

ACT Success Saturdays isn’t just about test prep—it’s about creating a ripple effect of confidence, support, and community. By helping students build the skills and self-belief they need to succeed, we’re opening doors to brighter futures. We’re uplifting the teachers who guide them, bridging the gap between schools and the communities that care, and building a flexible model that any school—urban or rural—can make their own. This is more than a program; it’s the beginning of a statewide movement to show every student in Oklahoma: you’re not alone, and your future matters.
