Educational Opportunities after TVHS :

Your education should not end with TVHS. This should only be considered a beginning.
Whether you are planning on four years of college, a certificate program, technical training or just taking some courses at a local college while you plan your career, you must remember your success at your career will be closely related to the amount of education and training you have in a particular field.

Some students will choose a four year college. A successful four years at college usually results in a BA or BS in a particular field. There are also several certification programs at 4 year colleges such as in education or paralegal studies. Many four year colleges now offer accelerated masters or law degree programs where a student can continue with graduate studies and earn a masters in Education in five years or a law degree in six years. Check the websites of the colleges carefully to see if they offer such a program.
