Academic Talent Search
Academic Talent Search is a program dedicated to assisting students in identifying & maintaining healthy academic habits from elementary through high school. Our goal is to ensure that students have access to the tools & resources available to be successful on their journey to higher education.
Bluffs Schools have a dedicated ATS advisor, Paula Chapman, who will come on-site to meet with your student during school hours,
to explore a variety of tools such as:
- Study Skills
- Time Management
- Goal Setting
- Tutoring
- Self-Esteem/Mentoring
- College & Career Exploration
- ACT/SAT fee waivers
ATS also plans several educational & cultural events over the summer and throughout the school year that are FREE FOR STUDENTS TO ATTEND!
Some of our past & future events include:
- St. Louis Aquarium
- Raging Rivers Waterpark
- Horseback Riding
- The Budding Artist
- Hannibal Mo Trip
- Campus Visits
(SIUE, MIZZOU, WIU, UIS, IC, etc.)
Going on a campus visit of your own? Let us know, we’ll give you $100!
