Thursday, March 26th - 2nd Semester Open House 5:00pm - 6:00pm

Thank you for your patience as we worked to reschedule our second-semester Open House. We reached out to our staff to identify a date that would work best for the greatest number of teachers. As you can imagine, it is difficult to find a single date that guarantees availability for everyone.

Based on the responses we received, the date and time that worked for the largest number of staff members is Thursday, March 26th from 5:00–6:00 PM, and we will plan to hold our Open House at that time. We will share specific details about the timing for the open House early next week.

We hope that everyone was able to review the new Program of studies. This updated guide is designed to provide families and students with clear information about our courses, programs, and opportunities as students begin the scheduling process for next year.

Because this is a newly redesigned Program of Studies, we recognize that it may look a bit different from what many families are used to navigating. Our goal was to make the information easier to access and more helpful as you support your student in making thoughtful course selections.

As you review the document, please feel free to reach out with any questions. Our administration and school counselors are always happy to help guide you and your student through the scheduling process.

As the school year is underway, so is the 2025-2026 Yearbook! As we know, many parents like to purchase a yearbook, we wanted to make you aware that sales for the 2025-2026 yearbook are now live. Yearbooks prices will increase on 2/28/2026. We wanted to make sure seniors/parents/guardians know and get their books purchased early at the discounted price. Last year, the books sold out, and some people were not able to purchase a book, so the earlier you buy, the better!

You can purchase the yearbook at www.yearbookforever.com (search for Holliston High School). If you need financial assistance, please contact the administration, and they will contact the yearbook advisor (Joel Stembridge).
