TPH ATTENDANCE
Attendance, Taken Seriously — Daily
Every student is checked in each morning through TPH Attendance, our in-house attendance system. Arrivals, tardies, early pickups, and absences are logged daily, and staff monitor morning readiness in real time. Built for busy families: parents enter the week's schedule in minutes from a link texted to their phone, with a live attendance line for last-minute changes. If something is off, we know — and your family hears from us.
The Student Experience
All planned and ready for 2026–27.
Mentorship
Big Brother/Big Sister program, Student Leadership Board, and daily mentorship from staff.
Real-World Exposure
