Principal's Message
Mustang Families,
Please take some time today to review all the information on the newsletter site. Today is Monday, April 8th, 2024.
Our Spring Break Week was also National Assistant Principals Week. I would like to take a moment to thank Ms. Carpenter, Mr. Magnera, and Ms. Moore for all the hard work and dedication to our students and school community they show every day. They work hard in helping run THHS, and can be seen assisting at a variety of events and out on campus every day. We are so fortunate to have them here and I am lucky to be able to work alongside them.
As Spring Break was beginning, our track and distance athletes, under the direction of Coach Ayers and Coach Kelly, hosted one of the largest Distance Carnival/Invitational in the state. With over 100 schools and 5000 athletes participating. Their hard work is one of the many examples of our coaches and staff going above and beyond to provide our students with a world-class education and extracurricular experience here at THHS.
We hope you have an opportunity to come on campus these next few months to attend some of the many athletic and performance events. The last two months of school are the busiest, and provide our students with so many opportunities to celebrate and enjoy their high school years.
This webpage has highlights, student recognitions, and more! Please scroll through to see all the incredible things happening at THHS.
Ms. Alicia Foulk
Principal

THHS Symphony and Orchestra Community,
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all who joined us for the remarkable 11th Annual Invitational High School Orchestra Festival held at the prestigious Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall in Costa Mesa on Monday, March 25, 2024.
It was a privilege to showcase the exceptional talents of our THHS students in such an illustrious venue nestled in the heart of Orange County. The performance at the Segerstrom Center undoubtedly left an indelible mark on our students, offering them an unforgettable experience that will resonate for years to come.
We extend our sincerest appreciation to our dedicated supporters whose unwavering encouragement continues to uplift and propel our instrumental music program forward. Your commitment enriches the lives of our students and fosters a culture of excellence within our community.

Graduation Banners
Congratulate your student on their graduation, college acceptance, military enlistment, trade school enrollment or other future plans by offering customized banners that will be displayed on campus the week of graduation activities. Banners will be available for pick up after the graduation ceremony of in the school office the following week. To order, please go to www.thhsptsa.org/graduation-banner.
________________________________________________________________________________
All seniors must meet all SVUSD graduation requirements in order to participate in the Graduation Ceremony. I encourage you to monitor your senior’s grades carefully during this important part of the school year. Any failure of a required course will automatically prevent a student from participating in the Graduation Ceremony.
Seniors must follow all school policies up through and including graduation. All financial and disciplinary obligations, as well as attendance at all mandatory graduation practices, must be fulfilled or participation in senior activities including the Graduation Ceremony, will be jeopardized.
Demerit Recovery and Graduation
In order to avoid jeopardizing participation in senior activities and the Graduation Ceremony, all senior students must have resolved all discipline consequences. If there are any questions regarding behavior contracts or any outstanding discipline consequences, students should follow up with an Assistant Principal of Supervision. Each hour of discipline consequences equals 1 demerit. Any senior student with demerits on their record must serve all assigned hours until their demerits equal ZERO (0) before they will be allowed to attend Prom, participate in any senior activities, or Graduation Ceremony. A schedule of assigned hours of discipline consequences along with the intended days to serve must be arranged with the Supervision Office immediately.
Senior Pranks
Please note this word of caution about “senior pranks.” Some of our students in the past without any disciplinary history have participated in a senior prank that resulted in lost opportunities and privileges. There is no such thing as a safe senior prank. Consequences could include loss of senior activities and may jeopardize participation in the Graduation Ceremony. If you become aware of such a plan, please inform the school and do not allow your senior to participate. Students should never be on school grounds outside of school hours for any reason other than official school business or activities.
Please help your senior make good choices to ensure their participation in all senior activities and the Graduation Ceremony.
Suspensions and Expulsions
Be advised that the Saddleback Valley Unified School District has a strict policy against the use or possession of drugs, alcohol, and weapons, and any other expellable offenses outlined by the California Education Code. Please note that if a student commits ANY expellable offense and is recommended for expulsion, they will be excluded from Prom, ALL senior activities, extra-curricular activities, and the Graduation Ceremony during the expulsion. Any student that is suspended and/or placed on a behavior contract for violations such as drug/alcohol possession or use, bullying or harassment, committing an obscene act, and possession of a weapon or dangerous object, within the last 45 days of school will not be able to attend prom, senior activities, and may be excluded from the Graduation Ceremony.
Behavior Expectations for the Graduation Ceremony
Students attempting to disrupt the integrity and grace of the Graduation Ceremony will be removed during the ceremony immediately.
Your support in discussing the importance of maintaining appropriate behavior through the end of the year as well as the severity of consequences for violating our behavior expectations is greatly appreciated and can ensure a positive experience during this exciting time for your family.
We want to ensure that all of our graduating seniors have the memorable experience of participating in their High School Graduation and your support is greatly appreciated.
I look forward to seeing you at graduation on May 30th.
