Husky Attendance Challenge
Calling all HTHS students! September is attendance awareness month. You may not be aware of this, but the school derives much of its funding from student attendance during this month. You are hereby challenged to participate in our attendance awareness competition. Every student who is present (all day) to school for the month of September will be entered into a drawing. The winners of this drawing will be announced at the October 3rd pep rally! We have two first place prizes, two second place prizes, and two third place prizes.
1st Place - $300
2nd Place - $200
3rd Place - $100
Missing even one day for any reason during the month of September for any reason will remove you from the competition.
School Fee Payments
School fees are available for payment on the My School Bucks app or via the following link: https://www.myschoolbucks.com/ver2/getmain?requestAction=home. We are working through all questions received and invoice corrections due to schedule changes. Our target date to have all MSB accounts updated due to schedule changes is Friday, September 5, 2025.
The 2025-26 Course Fee Sheet is located on the HTHS website via the following link: https://hths.tcsk12.us/students-and-families/finances-and-fees. Compare student schedules to the fee sheet to determine which fees are due.
