As a former employee who is still in education (moved out of state), I'm continually amazed at what The Highlands is compared to so much of what I've encountered now that I've moved away. I'm not sure they realize how good they have it. You notice immediately in speaking to the students that these are the individuals we want to be leading our communities/companies/governments/churches, etc. They'll be capable of it.

I've been going to the Highlands school since my sixth grade and now I am a junior in high school. That school is very well rounded when it comes to Christianity. I love the staff and how they are constantly lifting you up. The sports there are amazing because everyone has a chance to develop because we have the best coaches. Everyone gets playing time. The school also has other extra curricular activities like musicals we play every year. We have leadership roles when the high school girls and boys have every Wednesday to help out with the younger kids and be a great example.

I have been at The Highlands School since 1st grade and there is a reason and not just because my parents forced me. It was because of the people and how I was taught by the teachers that made me want to stay.

Our family has been at The Highlands School for more than 10 years. We have seen the fruits in our children of how much time, effort and faith formation the school and our family has put into their development.
