THS Earns TEA Designations – Timpson High School achieved a Met Standard rating in the 2016 state accountability ratings.  This is the highest rating a campus can earn.  In addition to achieving a  Met Standard rating, THS also was awarded 4 distinction designations based on achievement in performance indicators relative to a group of 40 campuses of similar type, size and student demographics.  The distinctions Timpson High School received are:

 

•     Academic Achievement in English Language Arts/Reading

 

•     Academic Achievement in Mathematics

 

•     Academic Achievement in Science

 

•     Top 25% Student Progress

 

“Earning one or more campus distinctions is noteworthy and should be a source of pride in a community “, said Texas Education Agency Commissioner of Education  Mike Morath in a September 14th  TEA news release.  THS Principal Ron Lindgren credited the dedication and hard work of the staff, students and parents that led to the campus earning these distinctions.
