Important News and Information from Principal Houlihan - August 10, 2023

Fort Students and Families,
Greetings from Fort Hamilton. We hope that you’re having a positive and productive summer break.
Tigers, have you done your summer reading? Still time before the first day of classes on 9/7/2023. The reading assignments are on the website at fthhs.org.
A few updates to ensure you are ready for the 2023-24 school year, starting with information about email accounts.
A reminder about phasing out the fthamiltonhs.org account for cohorts 2024, 2025 and 2026. It was mistakenly removed the first week of August but has since been restored. Use your OSIS # as the password to re-access your account and reset it as you wish. Access to fthamiltonhs.org will be totally removed on 9/8/2023, so transfer anything you need to your nycstudents.net account. ONLY nycstudents.net will be used at Fort Hamilton to begin the new school year, so plan accordingly. Every student should also have a personal email address to assist with the 2 step verification process.
If you need access to your nycstudents.net account, please complete the form on the link below.
