Principal's Message
Mustang Families,
Please take some time today to review all the information on the newsletter site. Today is Monday, March 18th, 2024.
Our Juniors will continue participating in CAASPP and CAST testing this week in their math, and science classes. We encourage all students to do their best, and help THHS continue the tradition of being the top performing high school in the district. The current participation requirements make it even more important for our students to work hard so that we hit our 95% participation rate. Should you have questions about the testing, please reach out.
Due to testing we will be on a modified schedule this week.
This week is the last week of third quarter.
We invite you to scroll through this page for highlights, student recognitions, and more!
Ms. Alicia Foulk
Principal
