Highlands is a magical place where children develop a love of learning in an environment that is as supportive and accepting as it is academically rigorous. We are thrilled to be a part of the this community!

My daughter attended Highlands from the 5th grade to the 8th grade. She didn't have any friends of color and they didn't do an excellent job of handling issues like bullying. However, they provide a significant scholarship and the academic part is excellent.

The best school in Birmingham. Small class sizes, individualized attention, strong emphasis on academics and well-rounded curriculum. Very supportive parents. Great afterschool program with lots of activities as well.
