The QHHS Associated Student Body Activities program promotes achievement of the Expected School-wide Learning Results (ESLRs) to help prepare graduates to be Responsible Citizens, Effective Communicators, Bold and Innovative Producers and Self-Directed Learners. The Activities Director along with the administrative staff, club and class advisors make up the team responsible for providing Quartz Hill High School students with the means by which to develop leadership skills and the responsibility of citizenship and community. The goal of the Activities program is to have each and every student involved in at least one extra-curricular activity.
ASB Cards
An ASB card is a stamp burned into the QHHS Student ID card and can be purchased in the Student Store for $35. With the ASB card students receive free admission to all non-CIF sporting events, a free spirit shirt, discounts at the Student Store, free athletic and academic letters, and discounts on admission to school activities. Popular discounts associated with the ASB Card include a $5 savings on the yearbook (through October), $10 discount off a Prom ticket (juniors/seniors only), and a $5 discount on Homecoming and Winter Ball Tickets. Proceeds from the sale of ASB Cards fund school-wide activities throughout the year as well as all student athletic programs. Seniors with an ASB Card will receive a discount on their Grad Nite ticket!
Assemblies
A variety of assemblies will be held throughout the school year. Students are expected to demonstrate behavior appropriate to the type of assembly being held. Violation of any school regulations will result in disciplinary action. Off campus passes will not be available on assembly days. A parent must come in to pick up the student in person on those days.
