Graduation
As students progress through their high school journey at ThrivePoint, we celebrate their achievements and milestones along the way. Graduating from high school is a culmination of years of hard work, dedication, and growth. We take pride in preparing our students for the next chapter of their lives, whether it’s pursuing higher education, entering the workforce, or following their passions and aspirations. Our goal is to instill in our graduates the confidence, knowledge, and skills they need to navigate the challenges of the real world and thrive in their chosen paths. Graduating from ThrivePoint High School is not only an academic achievement but a stepping stone towards a bright and promising future, and we are honored to be a part of our students’ journey to success.

College Readiness
At ThrivePoint High School, we believe that it is never too early for students to begin preparing for college. While high school is a time for students to grow, learn, and have fun, it is also an important time to start thinking about their future. By preparing early, students can set themselves up for success in college and beyond.
One important way that students can prepare for college is by taking challenging courses in high school. At ThrivePoint, we offer a variety of courses that can help students get ahead, including Advanced Placement (AP) courses and Dual Enrollment programs. These courses provide students with the opportunity to earn college credit while still in high school, giving them a head start on their college education.
FAFSA
Use the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form to apply for financial aid for college or graduate school.
College Board
College Board offers a variety of college prep resources for students, including practice SAT and AP exams, college search tools, financial aid information, and more.
Guidance and Counseling
ThrivePoint High School is committed to preparing students for a successful future. Our guidance and counseling services are designed to help students discover their passions, set meaningful goals, and make informed decisions about their education and career pathways. We encourage all students and parents to take advantage of these valuable resources and actively engage in their educational journey. Together, we can foster a supportive and empowering environment that equips our students with the skills and confidence to thrive academically, personally, and professionally.
