School Notes:
  • Timberlane Regional High School is located in Plaistow, New Hampshire and serves the towns of Atkinson, Danville, Plaistow, and Sandown, New Hampshire. TRHS, as the school is commonly called, was built in 1966 and is a part of the Timberlane Regional School District. A co-educational school for grades 9-12, and winner of the 1996 and 1997 Excellence In Education Award.
  • In addition to a challenging curriculum, Timberlane is known for its music and athletic programs. The school boasts a national champion wrestler and championship wrestling and football teams, as well as award-winning choral, orchestral, and band programs. An area leader in bringing technology into the classroom, TRHS also places heavy emphasis on learning beyond the classroom, including offering a wide array of co-curricular activities.
  • Mission Statement: Timberlane Regional High School is a community of learners, who value and nurture the academic, personal, creative, and social growth of our students.
  • We challenge our students through academic standards consistent with their needs, abilities, and aspirations.
  • We promote lifelong learning through curriculum and experiences that foster academic excellence and personal responsibility.
  • We believe all members of our community share responsibility for advancing this mission in a collaborative process characterized by caring and mutual respect.
  • History: TRHS was built in 1966 as a regional high school for the four towns it still serves today. The name 'Timberlane' came from the forestry industry that played a major role in the economic development of New Hampshire. Before the school was built, students attended several different high schools in the area, including Haverhill High School, in nearby Haverhill, Massachusetts. The 1970s brought tumultuous times for the school, including a strike of nearly all its faculty, as well as overcrowding which necessitated double sessions (one half of the student population would take classes in the morning, with the other half taking classes in the afternoon). This gross overcrowding was rectified in 1975 by the opening of the Timberlane Regional Middle School a short distance down the road.
  • The respite from overcrowding did not last long though, and by the early 1980s it was evident that the school would need to be expanded. An addition was completed in 1987, which included a second gymnasium and increased space for the athletic program. The student population continued to grow as families moved from Boston, Massachusetts further out to the suburbs, and the school was again overcrowded by the mid-1990s. In the fall of 1998, several modular classrooms were installed on the property as a temporary solution, and the community rallied for an extensive remodeling of TRHS and the six other schools in the Timberlane School District.
  • In 1999 a $40 million renovation program was instituted district-wide, which included a complete remodeling and expansion of TRHS as well as the construction of the $7 million Timberlane Regional Performing Arts Center. H.L. Turner Group Architects and Engineers completely redesigned the school, adding several new classrooms, increasing the size of the cafeteria and gymnasium, and installing an innovative ventilation system to bring fresh air to all spaces. The project was completed in early 2002 and brought renewed vigor and life to the building and its occupants.
