HTH Newsletter

"Story is the wisdom that can guide you to your true destiny--both temporal and spiritual. All of the great myths, legends, and fairy tales have that power. If you understand their secrets, they can guide you to a full realization of your self. Great stories are designed to guide us to our full potential and are as necessary to our well-being as fresh air."

-James Bonnet, author Stealing Fire From the Gods.


Here are some stories and we hope you find some fresh air.


Hello.
Welcome to High Tech High
This year we are excited to share this special peek into the culture, people and projects that form the stories of HTH. Coming to you in many forms, we begin with pictures below and look forward to sharing often. Enjoy! – Kaleb
The Principles Before the Principal
By Blake Dujowich, a HTH Junior, as published in
Trailblazers: Young Learners, Big Voices, New Paths (January 2018)  
“My learning experience as now an eleventh grade student at High Tech High has been very different from that of a traditional high school student. What makes my learning experience different is that from day one I felt a connection to the subjects, teachers, and fellow students.”
Some HTH students are planning to join the National School Walkout on Wednesday March 14th. Students are working closely with the administration to make sure the event is safe and peaceful. San Diego Police will be on hand for traffic control. Questions, please email Marcus at mbell@hightechhigh.org

Koffee With Kaleb is Wednesday March 14th at 9am and will continue as planned. Marcus Bell will be speaking to us about the school safety plan in light of the incidents in the past few weeks. There may be traffic issues leaving the meeting due to the walkout so please plan accordingly.
