Art Night TONIGHT 4/30/26 5:30-8:00 PM

It's time for the THS Art Department to roll out the red carpet and invite one and all to see the great works that our THS students have made this year. We will have Senior AP student portfolio collections, wheel throwing demos and opportunities to try a spin at the potters wheel, hand building, Pot Walk (think Cake Walk) giveaways, raku firing outside the Ceramics room, paintings, illustrations, photography...and so much more.

Please join us 5:30-8:00 to appreciate and celebrate the creative spirit, the right hemisphere of the brain, and the innovatively mad skills of your sons and daughters in the Timberline Auditorium.  

A cheerful anime-style character holds a sign that reads 'ART NIGHT' in bold letters.
 

AP Testing Information

AP testing will take place from May 4 through May 15, and students should make sure they know their specific testing date and time, as all exams will be held in the Main Gym ( unless told otherwise by the teacher).
Please come prepared with a fully charged Chromebook, pens, pencils, and a sweater or sweatshirt, as the gym can be quite cold. Students scheduled for morning exams must arrive no later than 7:40 AM, while those taking afternoon exams must arrive no later than 12:40 PM; afternoon testers will need to wait quietly in the Athletic Entrance hallway until the previous session is dismissed.
Students who choose not to test or do not show up will be charged a $40 unused exam fee.
In the case of illness or an emergency, students must email Mrs. Ennis (lisa.ennis@boiseschool.org)
within 24 hours of the missed exam to request a make-up test, or the opportunity to test may no longer be available.

Attention Senior Parents!

We are in need of chaperones for the Senior Grad Night Party at Wahooz~
All it requires is to show up at 10:15 for the meeting where you will be assigned a
station to watch the kids do their thing for the evening. 
Volunteers also get free pizza, soda, and donuts....same as the kids. Coffee is also
provided for the adults.... nice since we have to stay up until 3am!!
I know the time of 10:15 - 3:00am can seem long and daunting, but I guarantee it's
a fun night! We are required to have 1 adult per 10 students, but as students
begin to leave, I can release chaperones so if you cannot stay until the end, you
won't get a gold star, but I will appreciate your help anyway! 
Thank you for supporting a safe and fun way for our seniors to celebrate their
graduation night with their friends! We have had a great turnout in the past and expect
this year to be no different. Please help us out and if you are a parent of a current junior
or sophomore, thank you for helping the current seniors and feel free to take next year
off to enjoy time with your family and friends on your student's grad night!

Family Consumer Sciences Spotlight

Timberline Student, Layla Schafer, worked the runway at the REVIVE Fashion show at the Jump center on Saturday April 25th. 

The REVIVE Show brings attention to actions we can do to help reduce and prevent 92 million tons of textile waste annually. 70-80 percent of all clothing ends up in the trash. 

This event, which is a celebration of sustainability by upcycling clothing that would end up in the landfill featured designers of all ages. Great job Layla for your creativity, and hard work designing and recrafting a garment!

Volunteers needed! Idaho Youth Adaptive Sports Camp

Boise Parks & Recreation’s Adaptive Recreation program is looking for volunteers for the Idaho Youth Adaptive Sports Camp (Flyer Attached). The Idaho Youth Adaptive Sports Camp is offered to youth and teens who have a physical disability and use a wheelchair or could use a wheelchair to participate in sports. Camp sports include wheelchair basketball, wheelchair tennis, handcycling, swimming and more! All campers are paired with a volunteer who helps cheer and support the athlete they are helping over the four days of the camp. Volunteers need to be age 16 or older. Previous adaptive sports experience is not needed.
The camp takes place June 10-13 at Fort Boise Community Center. The goal is that volunteers can help all four days, but if not, volunteers need to commit to at least two of the days. Priority is given to volunteers who can help out all four days as we pair every volunteer with a camper and it’s really difficult on the campers if they have someone different each day. Meals are provided during the camp as is a camp T-shirt.
A volunteer training will take place Wednesday, June 3 from 6-8 p.m. at Fort Boise Community Center.
We will need help:
  • WEDNESDAY, JUNE 10 from 8:30 AM - 3:30 PM
  • THURSDAY, JUNE 11 from 8:30 AM - 3:30 PM
  • FRIDAY, JUNE 12 from 8:30 AM - 8:30 PM
  • SATURDAY, JUNE 13 from 8:30 AM - 1 PM
If you are interested, please fill out a volunteer waiver online. Instructions are in the attached PDF. Please make sure to indicate your T-shirt size as well.

BSU is gearing up for our third annual Health Sciences Camp at Boise State. The camp offers high school juniors and seniors of the 2026-27 year an exceptional opportunity to explore healthcare professions and health science programs at Boise State, learning through hands-on experience from our world-class faculty and Bachelor degree students, all while receiving a taste of life on campus with like-minded peers.

Their first two years of operation, they received overwhelming positive feedback from students and parents as their camp is the only one of its kind in Idaho, as well as a top option for the Pacific Northwest and West Coast regions.


This year, they are expanding their capacity to 50 students, and they still have spots available. They prioritize seating for incoming juniors and seniors of the 2026-27 year, but if students who are graduating this spring and are interested to attend, they will place them on a wait list until April 10 to allow eligible students the opportunity to apply first. As well, they have $200 scholarships available for those in need.
