Mark your calendars for next year:

  • Following counselor visits to middle schools and email confirmations to non VUSD families, our next communication will come in a summer mailer. 
  • Students interested in playing sports for FTHS will indicate interest on the course registration google form (emailed after the 1/25 zoom meeting) and will receive communication based on their expressed interest.  The Summer Sports/Incoming Athletes Meeting is on May 1, 2024 at 6:00pm. 
  • FTHS will send a summer mailer via USPS mail to families, with start of the year information, in early August.
  • Freshman orientation/picture day will take place on Monday August 12th, 2024, from 9am to noon.  At orientation, students will turn in papers from the summer mailer to receive their schedules, take school pictures and receive their school id, take a tour of the school, and participate in general orientation activities.  The new parent meeting will take place that evening, at 6:30pm.
