Highland Middle

At Highland Middle School, our mission is to teach to high academic and social standards so that each member of the school community becomes more internationally minded and develops a desire for lifelong learning and community responsibility. Students can join an award-winning music program consisting of band and orchestra. The Visual Arts Program provides students with specialized, intensive study in visual arts (2D and 3D), and students are encouraged to participate in community exhibitions and performance opportunities. Students will also have a fine arts immersive experience through Explore pathways of Consumer Science (Culinary and Environmental) and Engineering and Design.
