Seniors-

• Senior photos, including Senior Yearbook photos, are more elaborate and take a bit more time, so seniors will need to schedule an appointment. Cady Photography can accommodate Senior Photo shoots either at their studio, or on the Turner Campus during what they call Road Shows.
• We have scheduled two Road Show dates with CADY Photography, 9/25/26, 11/6/26.
• Seniors, Click Here to schedule an appointment to have your Senior Photos done either at the CADY Studio our during one of our campus Road Show.

THS Meet the Teacher Night- (6:30-8pm) Parents, you may want to print out your student’s schedule prior to coming. If not, you can access the schedule through Skyward on your mobile device, or we will happily provide a hard copy to you upon arrival to Meet the Teacher Night.

While most of the THS faculty and staff will be here, it is important to note that many of the Alvin Community College (ACC) professors teach night school. As such, Dual Enrollment professors do not typically attend the THS open house.
