Welcome back, Highlands! 💙💛

Yesterday marked the official first day of school, and we’re already off to a wonderful start! We wanted to share a few special moments from our Meet the Teacher event last Friday.

A big thank-you to Allison Tillman for showcasing our new and exciting Highlands Spirit Wear, and to our friends Karen and Julia for hosting a sweet lemonade stand to welcome back our students!

Happy second day of school! We can’t wait for another fun and memorable year at The Highlands School! 📚🍋

TASKMASTER: POST TWO 🎶

The task: Write and perform an original song inspired by this year’s theme, Powered by Purpose.

It had to include “Powered by Purpose,” mention The Highlands School, last at least 30 seconds, and include every member of the team.

Any tune. Any style. Any amount of dramatic flair. 🎤😂

And dramatic flair they brought.
