Hopefully you started freshman year, there is only really 6 semesters and 2 summers on your transcript for high school.

Might be overkill, but I had 2200+ SAT, comparable ACT, 3.8/4.2 GPA, dozen+ APs, lots of good extracurriculars (STEM and others), sports, summer jobs, etc. I would say the biggest thing I lacked was independent projects (not just programming) showcasing my interest, but everything worked out I guess.

I would say this: try to max out your schedule in terms of difficulty (for what you're allowed/meant to take), join relevant clubs and try to get notable achievements in them in what time you have, and perhaps do some CS stuff that you can showcase on your own (app to track sleeping habits, voting website for school elections, etc etc).

If you're looking for reading material, try this, I enjoyed it quite a bit when I read it in high school.
