🏈🎉 WHAT A NIGHT, TOPPER NATION! 🎉🏈 Our 2026 HHS Homecoming Parade & Pep Rally on the Square was another HUGE success! The energy, excitement, and school spirit were incredible, but what made the night truly special was seeing our students, families, alumni, and entire community come together to celebrate Houston High School! 🤍🩶❤️ A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who participated in the parade, helped behind the scenes, cheered from the sidewalks, packed the Courthouse lawn, and showed up to support our Hilltoppers. Nights like this remind us just how special our school and community truly are! Houston showed up. Houston showed out.

🎓 Once a Topper, ALWAYS a Topper! ❤️🤍

One of the coolest parts of today’s HHS College & Career Fair was seeing so many Houston High School graduates return to represent education, local businesses, and industries throughout our community!

This is what it’s all about—our students getting the opportunity to learn from people who once walked the same halls, sat in the same classrooms, and wore the same maroon and white. Now, they’re building careers, serving our community, and showing the next generation of Toppers what is possible.

We are PROUD of our alumni and thankful they continue to invest in Houston High School! 💪🎓

What a great morning at See You at the Pole at HUES! We were proud to see our students come together for a student-led time of prayer and encouragement. It was led by our very own FCA Houston High student, Elias Cardwell. It was special to witness our students take the lead and support one another in such a meaningful way.❤️🤍

📣 HOMECOMING DRESS-UP DAYS — QUICK CLARIFICATION!

We know there are a couple of different Homecoming Dress-Up Day graphics making the rounds, so we wanted to provide a quick clarification!

The original Homecoming Dress-Up Day schedule that was shared remains in place. The secondary graphic that has been shared is simply an ALTERNATIVE dress-up day schedule for HHS STUDENTS ONLY.

HHS students may participate in either dress-up theme each day. Pick your favorite, dress up, have fun with it, and show your TOPPER PRIDE!

The alternative schedule applies ONLY to Houston High School students and does not change the dress-up schedules that have been established at our other schools.

At the end of the day, Homecoming Week is about having fun, getting involved, and celebrating what makes our school and community special. Just keep everything school appropriate and come ready for a GREAT Homecoming Week!

🤘🏼 GO TOPPERS!

D.A.R.E. is going strong this year with our fifth graders at HUES. Our SRO Mr. James Shea teaches it each week. Our students have fun and are left with great information that can help them make good decisions.
