Are SAT/ACT scores the exclusive property of the HS Student?

<p>My child's HS requires that all SAT I and II and ACT scores be sent with the HS transcript to any colleges my child applies to. My child had planned to request that the College Board and ACT corp. send these scores -- not his HS. That way, the lower scores would not be part of the college application (unless the college is requiring that all scores be sent for their review). It seems to me that the HS is totally ignoring "score choice". It was also my understanding that the scores are NOT part of the student's HS transcript. The HS says their actions are required by the "Dept. of Education". If anyone can share information about this issue I would greatly appreciate hearing it!! Thanks again.</p>

<p>That is most certainly not required for the Federal Department of Education. It sounds best that you handle it yourself, so you can use score choice when applicable.</p>
