THS PRIDE: Personal Responsibility in Daily
Effort
THS PRIDE! At THS we believe in PRIDE:
Personal Responsibility in Daily Effort.
Everyone at THS, administrators, staff, and
students is encouraged to focus on PRIDE,
because we can make it more than a word: it can
become one of our predominant attitudes!
Moving
from a written statement to a pervasive attitude
takes some careful planning and action. We were
excited. We have decided to make it our attitude
with the purpose of achieving academic
excellence. PRIDE at THS is driven by the PBIS
(Positive Behavior
Intervention Support) Committee which works
toward creating an ideal learning environment at
THS.
You get from human beings what you reward
The
PBIS Committee has the responsibility of setting
up an awards and rewards system for our students
that emphasized the four areas on which we
wanted to focus:
1.
Appropriate academic responsibility/ success
2.
Student attendance
3.
Student conduct
4.
Effort
Scheduling: [Scheduling Guide]
Scheduling is done at
the beginning of the spring term for the
following year. Forms must be signed by a
parent/guardian at that time.
Schedules are mailed
out about 3 weeks prior to the start of school
in the fall. If there is an error, the guidance
office should be consulted so that it can be
rectified before the start of classes.
Interventions
for improving grades
1. Contact your teacher for specific
suggestions for improvement and help available.
2. Be in class on time and well-prepared each
day. Participate with full attention in class
activities.
3. Keep an assignment book or planner to
organize short-term and long-term projects.
Break large projects into smaller chunks.
4. Block off routine, quiet study time at home.
5. Review notes and texts periodically. Do not
wait until the night before a test. Plan ahead
for finals.
6. Establish study groups with peers.
7. Review sound test-taking techniques. Ask your
teacher how to best study for his/her subject
area.
8. Reevaluate your priorities when activities or
employment outside of school jeopardize your
academic success.
9. Use school resources available to you.

Alma Mater
The praises of
Terrebonne High School sing.
Our voices
raise on high.
Her glorious
name to the breezes fling,
'Til echoes
rend the sky.
For noble
deeds, for honor bright,
For truth's
unbroken sway.
For victories
won in virtue's fight,
We herald her
fame today. |

It is
known that the Terrebonne High School
Alma Mater dates back to at least 1913.
After a period of approximately
twenty-five years when it wasn't sung,
the class of 1943 was vital in restoring
the Alma Mater to its rightful place in
the school. At that time only the words
were available. Since the music was
lost, Hal M. Gilder, the music teacher,
wrote the present arrangement of this
song with the assistance of the
Honorable J. Louis Watkins, a student in
1913 who remembered the original melody.
The text of the full alma mater can be
found on the
history page. |
Fight Song
Oh, when the Terrebonne
Tigers fall in line,
We're gonna win that game
another time.
For THS I yell, I yell, I
yell,
And for the football team
I yell, I yell, I yell.
We're gonna fight, fight,
fight, for every yard,
We're gonna hit that line
and hit it hard,
We're gonna roll those. . .
. . . on the side, on the side,
Terrebonne High.
EQUAL
EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES

to all students in compliance with statutory and
judicial requirements.
