Seniors, Your final high school transcripts have been sent to the college/university you selected. If you took dual credit course(s) through Ivy Tech, JCTC, Murray, University of Kentucky and/or any other school, you will need to go to that schools website and request a final transcript to be sent to the college/university your will be attending in the fall. For example, If you plan to attend Ivy Tech in August and you took classes through U of K, you will need to go to the U of K website and request an official transcript to be sent to Ivy Tech. If you took classes at Ivy Tech and plan to continue taking courses at Ivy Tech, you will not need to request a transcript for the Ivy Tech classes as they already have that information on file. If you have any questions, please contact Ms. Howerton or Mrs. Farmer at andrea.howerton@trimble.kyschools.us or whitney.farmer@trimble.kyschools.us
Reminder: Summer School begins tomorrow at 9:00am. If your student is a car rider, please enter through the South entrance (closest to Bedford) and drop your child off at the front corner of the building. Students should proceed to the front of the school and enter through the main entrance. Vehicles should proceed to the lower parking area to turn around and then exit through the South entrance (where you came in). When picking up your student, please enter through the South entrance and proceed to the lower parking area. Students will be dismissed through the gym. You will continue through the lower parking area and exit in the same manner as the morning drop off. Please be mindful of this pattern as heavy construction will not allow for vehicles to circle the back of the school. We ask that you also avoid pulling to the front entrance as busses will be loading and unloading in this area. Thank you!
