HVL Gym Loan Recalled
In 2005, HVL supporters made a total of $890,000 in loans for the purpose of building the HVL gymnasium. What a blessing that was! Recently we were notif ied by a generous member-loan lender that a loan of $15,000 be returned by December 30th. We wish to honor the request as quickly as possible and ask for your help. At this time HVL is seeking loans or gif ts to cover this amount. Over the past f ive years, we have received and repaid over $150,000 in loans. Each time we have communicated our need to repay a loan, Association churches and individual supporters of HVL have responded generously. Please consider making a special gif t to help us repay this loan balance. If you have any questions or comments, please contact the HVL off ice at 734.525.0160, email us at [email protected], or click on the link to make an on-line donation.

ACT Preparation for HVL
StudentsThe ACT test is given six times a year, and most students begin taking this test their junior year of high school. ACT scores are very important and are used in determining college admissions, scholarships, and even out-of-state tuit ion. For this reason, HVL has taken an active role in preparing HVL students to take the ACT test. Rome wasn't built in a day, as they say, nor can you become an expert in the SAT or ACT overnight. HVL administers ACT/SAT test preparation in a variety of methods beginning in grade 9.
1. ACT Prepworks - This is an online self-paced ACT Prep for students in grades 9-11. Completion of the program guarantees a 3 point increase to students. A Pass or Fail grade recorded on transcript.
2. ACT COMPLETE PRACTICE TEST - On Wednesday, November 22nd, a complete ACT practice test will be administered to students in grades 9-11 and the results will be sent home to parents. This is a half day of school which ends at 11:40.
3. ACT ASPIRE - ACT Practice Test administered in the spring for grades 9-10
