The Framework Behind MasteryPrep Boot Camps

Boot Camps are built around an engagement model that turns a single day into meaningful gains in skill development and test-day readiness. Take an inside look at how our Boot Camps are structured, how we foster effective engagement, and the four core components that guide every event.

“If you’re going to connect with students, you have to get them early. It is very hard to get them to put their phone down three hours into an event.”

Success Stories: Boot Camp for the ACT

Western Hills High School Improves ACT Composite by 2 Points

Western Hills High School partnered with MasteryPrep to host an ACT Boot Camp for 67 juniors who were within 1–4 points of meeting Kentucky’s system-wide benchmarks across one or more ACT sections.

As a result, the Western Hills Class of 2023 posted an average ACT composite of 18.8—up 2.1 points from 16.7 when those same students tested as sophomores in 2022.

Transforming Test Prep: Memorial High School, Oklahoma

Memorial High School, one of nine high schools in Tulsa Public Schools, enrolls more than 1,000 students. In recent years, the school received an ‘F’ in Academic Achievement on its Oklahoma School Report Card—one of five indicators that factor into a school’s overall grade.

Before the 2023–24 school year, Memorial transitioned from the SAT to the ACT and turned to MasteryPrep for support. What began as a single MasteryPrep Boot Camp for the ACT has grown into a robust partnership—with ACT Prep Week becoming just one piece of a year-round strategy to boost outcomes at Memorial.

"Every time we had a Boot Camp, the kids came out smiling, engaged, and improved their scores."

Customers Reviews

What educators say:

“Our Boot Camps became community events. Local businesses provided meals and prizes. Teachers attended with their students. And it created real momentum.”

“We encouraged our teachers to attend the Boot Camp throughout the day, and they were very impressed by the content, presentation. When you can engage 70 students for that long in one day, keep their attention, and get those results, it’s a return on investment that any school would want.”

“MasteryPrep was incredibly flexible. This schedule keeps our students engaged. We’ve done it this way for three years now, and it works.”
