At Highlander Charter School, students get individual attention, build lasting bonds, and use customized plans to learn in the ways that are most effective for them. Highlander is an urban charter school with 274 students in grades pre-K-6 located in the heart of Providence, and 360 students in grades 7-12 located on 42 acres in Warren. It offers all the benefits of a private school – small classes, diverse populations, individual attention from teachers – in a public school setting. With small sized classes, the diversity of each student at Highlander is celebrated. Each student works with teachers specially trained to help students, even those with learning differences, master reading and math. Together, students and teachers develop individualized learning plans that help students acquire the skills they need while learning about things that really interest them. Highlander’s high school has moved from seat time requirements to competency based in an effort to provide all students with the skills they need to progress to completion. Through close involvement with the community and parents volunteering their time, Highlander Charter School is a place where kids come early, stay late, and build the educational foundation they need to succeed.

It's time for a Girl Scout movie night! Come on out to Track 15 on Wednesday, October 7 at 6:00 PM for a free screening of Cookie Queens!

Cookie Queens is a heartwarming documentary following a group of Girl Scouts through cookie season. It's beautifully shot, and many of the story lines will resonate with Girls Scouts young and old.

Bring your lawn chairs, blankets, friends, family, and your best Girl Scout spirit. Settle in, grab some food at Track 15, and enjoy a night under the stars with us (or under the roof in case of rain). It's FREE, and everyone is welcome. Bring a friend!
