THS students and staff moved into their new space on January 22, 2025, and are starting to become accustomed to their new learning and teaching environment. The Raider Report touched base to see how everyone is settling in. Check out views of the space from our report on the Open Houses that took place in early January.

“Music really got spoiled with a lot of things that we got for these new buildings. I really love the opportunity that is going to be afforded to us in the future once everything is officially like installed and ready to go.” For example: “The way the piano room will be able to run is very innovative in the way that we will be able to have kids collaborate with each other and explore piano in different ways in the past.”
