TRIO Talent Search

LC State's TRIO Talent Search program helps make college possible for students whose families are on a limited income and whose parents didn't graduate with a four-year college degree. We serve students in grades 6-12, and individuals up to age 27 who are seeking a GED.
TRIO ETS is 100% federally funded. Nationwide, over 387,600 individuals are enrolled in 471 ETS programs. Our outreach serves Idaho schools in Grangeville, Kamiah, Kooskia, Lapwai, Orofino, and Timberline.
