Tustin High School News

Prom 2024 was a blast! More than 400 students attended the event at Richard Nixon Library in Yorba Linda, which was a beautiful and spacious venue. Students enjoyed a DJ, live band, caricatures, photo booth, and dessert bar. Thank you to THS ASB and Mrs. Sarah Hughes for coordinating such a fun night, and all the staff who served as chaperones!

We are incredibly thankful to have an amazing team of staff who go above and beyond each day to support students in and out of the classroom. During Staff Appreciation Week, PTO and the Admin Team provided daily treats including bagels and fruit, esquite (corn) cups, nachos, aguas frescas, ice cream sandwiches, candy bars and more. The entire staff also received California Distinguished Schools pins. Thank you to our awesome PTO and to all of our families who contributed items!

On May 14, we celebrated the remarkable achievements of our students during the Scholarship and Awards of Excellence! Our Awards of Excellence event celebrates individuals who have demonstrated outstanding performance and contributions in various fields. This could include academic achievements, leadership, community service, sports, arts, and other areas of excellence.

Congratulations again class of 2024! We are so proud of you!

We are grateful for the extraordinary generosity of our donors and their unwavering support that allows us to provide scholarships and recognitions to our outstanding students!

Scholarships

This week we also celebrated students at the World Language Awards of Excellence ceremony. These students have accomplished so much while studying a second language, Spanish or French. Congrats to the 107 seniors who have earned their California State Seal of Biliteracy!

On Wednesday, we celebrated an additional 57 students who met the requirements for reclassification this year, bringing us to a total of 147 students this year who:

• Scored a Level 4 on the 2023 ELPAC
• Scored Level 3 or 4 on STAR Reading or CAASPP ELA
• Earned a D or higher in English

During the ceremony, students received certificates and enjoyed chips and ice cream in the presence of ELD teachers and district staff. They now no longer need to take the ELPAC or an ELD class again, as long as test scores and grades remain satisfactory. Congrats, Tillers!

Our work as a community school includes creating community partnerships to bring more enrichment opportunities for students! For the past two years, we have partnered with Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Orange County's Workplace Mentoring Program to give students an opportunity for mentorship and career development. Students were matched with adult mentors from the Banc of California's Santa Ana branch and met monthly for relationship building and learn about career development topics (i.e. resume building, job interviews college planning, and more).
