We loved welcoming Lacey, Lillian’s mom, into our 1st Grade classroom for a special storytime featuring “A Bad Case of Stripes” by David Shannon.

Stories like this give our students more than a good read - they open the door to meaningful conversations about who we are, embracing our individuality, and having the confidence to be ourselves.

Thank you, Lacey, for sharing your time and helping make learning at Highlands even more meaningful! 💙

Deputy Brian brought the uniform, the gear, and a whole lot of answers today.

Our first graders had all the questions as they learned more about his role as our School Resource Officer and how rules, laws, and community all work together.

We love seeing our students connect what they’re learning in Social Studies to the world around them - and getting curious along the way!💙

These students are stepping up to serve their peers, lead events, strengthen our community, and put leadership into action. We can’t wait to see the ideas they bring, the connections they build, and the impact they make throughout the year on campus.

There’s something special about building a classroom community where every student knows they belong. 💙

Yesterday morning, our fourth graders read “Our Class Is a Family” and then received a special bracelet to symbolize the bond they share as a Fourth Grade family. A sweet reminder that at Highlands, we learn, grow, and support one another together.

We’re grateful for teachers like Amy Pruett who make belonging such an important part of the classroom experience.
