Class of 2025 - you made it! Congratulations! Seniors will be completing their finals next week and preparing for clearance and commencement.

9th-11th graders, we are in the last two weeks of school and are encouraging students to finish strong! Checking PowerSchool and communicating with teachers are two ways to ensure all work is turned in to be graded on time. You will have your finals on June 9-11 with a shortened bell schedule (see below and note that the school day ends at 12:55 p.m.)

The 2024-2025 school year was full of accomplishments. I hope you have a restful summer break and we look forward to seeing many of you in August!

Quarter 3 (Q3) and Quarter 4 (Q4) grades combine to become the Semester 2 (S2) grade, which will be the final grade shown on a student's transcript. PowerSchool is a great tool for monitoring your student's grades and opening discussions about classwork and overall student success. Download the app to make monitoring grades and attendance easy!

Seniors & Families - check your email for the "Senior Graduation Newsletter" that was updated and sent on May 12th. You don't want to miss it! TUSD Elementary schools are hosting "Senior Walks" for their alumni - please be sure to RSVP and enjoy the celebration!

On Friday, May 16th, Hull hosted their 6th Annual Combat Bot Competition where our THS Robotics Club showcased their creativity, perseverance, and problem-solving skills — and their hard work paid off! Students demonstrated what it means to have a Growth Mindset & Lifelong Learning by building, testing, and refining their bots through trial and error. They embraced challenges, learned from setbacks, and collaborated to bring their designs to life. Out of 40 teams, THS team Robovision (made up of freshman founding members) won 1st place in the finals.

🥉3rd Place: Taylor Fong, Eric Gonzalez, Issey Fumimoto
🏅4th Place: Thomas Frame, Andrew Kato, Camilo Alvarez, Jimin Kim

Ms. Jennifer Wong, their PLTW teacher, and Dr. Stowe were in attendance. We’re proud of these students for pushing their thinking, applying real-world STEM skills, and continuing to grow as innovators and lifelong learners. Go Tartars!

This life-saving service empowers you, our students, and our community members to anonymously report any concerns, including potential threats, bullying, or individuals who may be at risk of harming themselves or others. There are three ways to make a report:

• Call the 24/7 crisis hotline counselors at 1-844-5-SayNow (1-844-572-9669)

• Download the mobile app at Google Play or Apple Store

• Submit a tip through their secure website

No matter how you report, Say Something ensures that every voice is heard and every concern can be addressed promptly.

We encourage you to remind your children about the importance of speaking up if they see or hear something troubling so that we can partner to address issues before they escalate. By working together, we can create a safer and more supportive environment for everyone.
