Timken participated in the Principals Athletic Conference (PAC-7/8), before they were absorbed by Canton McKinley in 2015.

As part of the Canton City School District with four quadrants and three district high schools, students could choose to take a test and enter a vocational program at Timken from any of the quadrants.

Students were given opportunity to explore several occupational experiences during their Sophomore year.

Their Junior and Senior year was spent in their choice of vocational program.

The remaining high school retains the McKinley name, mascot, and colors.
