I have loved Highland School because of its leadership opportunities. I've had the honor to serve as a class officer, NHS member, Key Club officer, and team captain. Through these, I've made many friends and improved myself as a person. However, I have disliked Highland's lack of diversity. I'm excited for college where there will be more people with different interests.

I have loved the learning environment and the teachers understand and excellence in the classroom. The relationships I have with my classmates and with my teachers will last a lifetime. The classes I have taken have taught me skills that allow me to overcome many obstacles

Highland is very different from any public school that I have gone to. I liked it because it was smaller and not as overwhelming in size as the other public schools in my area are. The teachers are also very nice for the most part and seem to care about the students they are teaching. The things that I did not like about Highland was that it is way too expensive to go to and they are always increasing the price. There is also this idea that we have to do things just for show and not really because we care, which is something I did not like to be a part of. Overall, the school has been very nice to go to though.

My kids have been attending Highland for several years now. We absolutely love the school. The teachers, the curriculum, the sports, the facilities, and the sense of family are all fantastic. We couldn’t ask for a better experience. Thank you, Highland!

I was hesitant at first about Highland because I had formed my own stereotypes about private school. When my son was being bullied (emotionally and physically) at the public schools without the principal doing anything to stop it, we turned to Highland. we had our son tour the school with us because...

This school is truly exceptional in developing the “whole person.” It is superior to even the best public schools in every facet.
