Current Sophomores & Juniors: Are you planning on doing Running Start next year? Have you applied to the college and taken your placement test? IF so, now is the time to email your THS School Counselor for an appointment to complete your Fall Running Start Paperwork.

AP Students: AP students who are taking online exams in June should visit the Four Steps to Take Before You Can Test webpage to download the testing application. For students using district-managed Chromebooks, this application will be added for you. Zoom Q & A sessions for online testing will be held on Wednesday May 5, at 2 PM, and Wednesday May 12, at 2 PM. Look for the Zoom link to be emailed to the address in your College Board account.
Student Well Being Survey: Social Emotional well-being of our students is very important to us. As a result, we want to check in with our kids each Wednesday starting April 28 in 6th period classes via survey. Students will fill out a 3 question survey and teachers and counselors will follow up based upon the responses. The questions that will be asked are:
*How are you doing today?
*How are you feeling about school?
*Do you want your 6th period teacher or a counselor to contact you?
