Correspondence with Faculty & Staff

Please make every effort to correspond with HTCS Teachers & Staff through the School Phone and Email addresses, only, when handling school-related business.  Our faculty and staff are more than willing to work with all of our families, but messages through personal phone numbers, text messages and personal email addresses seem to be increasing.  By using our school modes of communication, you are guaranteed to get a response.  Please respect our employees' evenings and weekends by contacting them through these outlets.  Thank you for your understanding.
