Tustin High School News
September 15, 2025
Our Fall Club Rush featured more than 30 different clubs for students to explore and join! From academic and service organizations to cultural, creative, and recreational groups, there was something for everyone. Club Rush is a great way for students to get involved, discover new interests, and connect with others who share their passions. We encourage all Tillers to take advantage of these opportunities and make the most of their high school experience!

For the thirteenth consecutive year, the Tustin Unified School District is partnering with Tustin
Toyota to increase overall student engagement and attendance by highlighting senior role models.
All seniors who maintain daily engagement, outstanding attendance when healthy, and positive
behavior at each of TUSD’s high schools will be eligible for entrance in a lottery for a new Toyota
Corolla generously donated by Tustin Toyota.
Program Details/Rules/Eligibility:
• All participants in the program must be high school seniors who attend one of TUSD’s
schools – Beckman, Foothill, Hillview, Tustin, Legacy Magnet Academy or Tustin
Connect – in the 2025-26 school year.
• To be eligible for an entry in the lottery a student must be at school when they are healthy
and participating in class daily throughout their senior year specifically from September
15, 2025, through April 10, 2026.
• The only absences that will keep a student eligible for the drawing will be religiously.
Discipline related absences including excessive tardiness to class or a suspension of any
kind will disqualify a student from the drawing.
• A list of students who remain eligible for the drawing will be available at school attendance
offices at the end of each quarter. A final list of eligible students will be posted one week
prior to the drawing.

Wednesday, May 13, 2026 (two school days prior to drawing).
