High School
Go Beyond instruction; inspire leadership
Welcome to Timothy Christian High School! As a National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence, Timothy Christian High School is a college preparatory school that is committed to an excellence-driven program of academics, fostered by eternally relevant morals, virtues, and values found in the Bible. Whatever your child’s goals are — they can get there from here!
High school is a time to explore different career interests. From internships to Dual Enrollment and AP and Honors courses, Timothy Christian High School not only offers a wide variety of classes, but will help every student hone and develop their God-given gifts and talents.
Timothy Christian High School is the recipient of the U.S. Department of Education 2019 Blue Ribbon Award. The Department recognized Timothy Christian High School as an Exemplary High Performing School.
152 Students took 314 AP™ exams with an average exam score of
4.07
Senior Accepted into medical school
Clarissa Chen (Class of 2024) was accepted into the highly competitive and prestigious Guaranteed Professional Program Admissions (aka GPPA) for medical students, a program with a 5-10% acceptance rate. As a GPPA student, Clarissa not only secured admission to the pre-med undergraduate program, but also guaranteed a spot in medical school at UIC! The graduate application for med school is so rigorous that many pre-med students take a gap year to reach the qualifications. GPPA eliminates this process for Clarissa; she’s already in!
Clarissa took advantage of every opportunity that Timothy Christian High School offered — from taking AP classes to getting involved in clubs and sports, and playing in the orchestra. But perhaps one of the most important moments during her high school career was her internship at Northwestern Hospital in Winfield. She had the opportunity to shadow in different departments, including pediatrics, cardiology, and post-surgery recovery. But it was in the emergency room where she felt a spark. The internship had a profound and lasting impact on her. She knew she had to commit to medicine.
Advanced Coursework
Senior Christian Friend has earned just about enough college credits to have a minor in math—all while still in high school!
internships
Caleb Hoekstra interned at V3 during Timothy's Renew term. V3 is an engineering firm located in Woodridge, Illinois.
Opportunities for Every Student
Over half of all high school students participate in two or more activities and can choose from over 24 Clubs & Extracurriculars.
At Timothy, we’re small enough that a student can dive into lots of different clubs and activities, yet big enough to be competitive. From leadership positions in DECA to creating inspiring music in orchestra, there’s a place for every student. Participation in many different extracurricular activities makes our students college, career, and life ready.
Young Life Chapter for High SChool Students
What is Young Life? Parents, students, friends, and family members all want to know what this Timothy organization is all about. In short, Young Life is a Christian organization that shares the gospel with teens in a fun and exciting way.
High School Unstoppable Bible Study
If you give teenagers an extra hour to sleep on a school day, they will take it. This is why it is such an unusual sight to see 50-100 Timothy Christian High School students file into the Ward Athletic Center on Wednesday mornings at 8:30 am.
