WHAT’S COMING UP
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR SENIORS
How will you pay for college??
Here you will find a list of national, regional, state and local scholarships. Some applications are available online and others are available in the College & Career Advising office & on the Scholarship Wall in the senior hallway. Apply for as many scholarships as you can. It's free money and potentially earning $500-$20,000 for a few hours of work is a pretty good paycheck! Apply early and pay attention to items needed with your application such as transcripts or reference letters. See Ms. Paquette for tips on how to do a successful scholarship application! Check back regularly for new scholarship listings.
TIMBERLAKE HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS
Students at THS have two pathways to graduation. We offer a regular high school diploma and an advanced diploma. If you have questions about the two, please contact your counselor.
SAT AND ACT
Choosing which standardized test to include in your portfolio is, without a doubt, an important part of your college application strategy. Most colleges and universities place equal weight on results from either test. This ambivalence provides an opportunity for savvy applicants to play to their key strengths as a result of the different structures of each exam. Currently the State of Idaho pays for its junior students to take the SAT once during school hours, on a specified day. This school year juniors will take the SAT on April 10th, 2018 with a make up date of April 24th, 2018. You may choose to take it again for a fee to improve your score. You may also choose to take the ACT to see if you do better on that test, which some Lakeland School District students do. Click on the buttons below to find the dates that SAT and ACT tests are administered.
ADVANCED OPPORTUNITIES
Dream. Challenge. Succeed.
Timberlake High School and Advanced Opportunities allow for students to individualize their high school learning plan and get a jump start on their future. Options include dual credit, technical competency credit, and Advanced Placement programs.
For additional information on our course offerings, funds available, and class availability, please contact your counselor.
