A Message from the Principal

Dear Highlander Families:


As we approach the end of another incredible year filled with learning, growth, and shared experiences, I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for all that you do to support our students. The holiday season is a time for reflection, joy, and togetherness, and I am so grateful to be part of such a vibrant and supportive community, making our school a truly special place.


May this holiday season bring you moments of peace, happiness, and connection with loved ones. May you find time to relax, rejuvenate, and create cherished memories with family and friends. Whether you're celebrating a specific holiday tradition or simply enjoying the winter break, we hope you find joy in the little things and appreciate the beauty of the season. I look forward to the year ahead, filled with exciting opportunities and shared achievements.


The Faculty at Hewes Middle School wishes you a joyful holiday season and a happy New Year!


Sahra Tanikawa, Principal

Let's bring joy to the students of Tustin Public Schools this holiday season and make a positive impact on their learning!

TPSF Grants are designed to enhance student education, and this year, we have received 215 enrichment grant applications, which amounts to about $250,000 in grant funding needs. This is more than double the number of applications we received two years ago. We would love to fund as many as possible, and invite you to contribute to our fundraising campaign this holiday season. By doing so, you'll be supporting more grants for teachers, which will ultimately benefit TUSD students.

This is an excellent opportunity to spread some holiday cheer and show our support for Tustin Public Schools. Thank you for helping us achieve our fundraising goals!

All donations are tax-deductible. Tax ID: 33-0353928.
