Alonso High School

Congrats to Matthew Glassman from Alonso High School on receiving a $1,000 ACP Scholarship from the Hillsborough Education Foundation! 🎉🎓

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU! To ensure we continue to provide high-quality, rigorous learning opportunities that meet the needs of our students and prepare them for college and careers, we are asking HCPS families to complete a brief survey.

The survey shouldn’t take more than a few minutes to fill out and will be a valuable source of information for us as we work to make our schools and district stronger.

You may complete the survey online using a computer, tablet, or smartphone now through Friday, January 23. Please check your email for a direct link from your school's survey coordinator.

We thank you in advance for your thoughtful responses and support.

Monday, January 5, is a non-student day. We look forward to welcoming students back on Tuesday, January 6.
