    Dear Parker Students and Families,

    As we enter the 2023-2024 school year, I want to welcome everyone to Terry Parker High School. For all students returning to Terry Parker, congratulations on your achievements from last year, as your hard work and ability to overcome some significant obstacles along the way is a testament to you! Your commitment to your education continues to reflect in your academic performance. For those new to Terry Parker, I welcome you into a warm and welcoming family that will take you to the next level in your education. The faculty and staff here are very excited to support you in accomplishing all your academic goals. Always remember that you are in charge of your learning. We have incredible teachers at Terry Parker who will provide you with everything you need to grow socially and academically. 
     
    We have several celebrations from this past school year. I want to start with our graduating class earning over 7.4 million dollars in scholarship money, nearly $2 million more than the previous class. Terry Parker also increased the graduation rate by 7% to 85%. After reviewing state assessment scores, our school improved by 16% in social studies proficiency, 13% increase in science, 14% increase in math, and 5% increase in our English scores. We have made tremendous strides in just one year, but the work has only begun. We will continue to focus on increasing these areas, especially reading proficiency and graduation rate. We as a school need to unite and support our students, teachers, and staff to succeed. Hard work and dedication are qualities in people striving for success. You, as students, will be challenged to come on time, prepared, and ready to work each day and overcome the ongoing obstacles in life and school here at Terry Parker High School. You will quickly see the sky is the limit through your commitment to hard work and education. I cannot stress ATTENDANCE enough; you must be in school to learn! 
     
    To all of our proud parents and caregivers, I invite you to model and partner with us throughout the school year as we strive to provide our students with the best education and support possible. Research shows that students will have the most significant possibility for success if support structures are in place at home. Make the 2023-2024 school year your best year ever as a student. If you need anything, please do not hesitate to reach out. 

     

    Sincerely,

    Principal Robert N. Hudson
