Summer 2024

Dear Highland Families:

Our staff has begun to enjoy their summer break, but each member of our Highland team will be ready to kick off a new school year soon! Much preparation has gone into making sure that the 2024-2025 school year is safe, happy, productive, and the best year yet! 

At Highland Elementary, we believe that a strong partnership between school and home is crucial to ensure our students reach their full potential both academically, behaviorally, and socially. By working together, we can wrap our arms around each child and provide them the nurturing, guidance, and support they need both at home and at school. At Highland, we pride ourselves on meeting each child where they are, celebrating what makes them unique, and developing our instruction in a personal way that meets each of their needs. Instruction catered to your child’s specific needs is what you can expect.

In the spring, our teachers along with our support team worked carefully to create balanced classes for the  upcoming school year based on many varying factors. It is a complicated process that includes much time, thought, and diligence by each member of our team. Your child’s teacher’s name will be posted in Skyward on August 27 at 4:00pm. I trust that our team made the right placement for your child. As the school year approaches, look for more communications through the family email account you have designated in Skyward as well. 

We know everyone is excited to meet their new teacher, see their classroom, drop off school supplies, and gather with friends. Our staff looks forward to welcoming all students and families to an Open House on Wednesday, August 28 from 3:00-4:00pm. 

In the meantime: read, rest, play, go on adventures, and spend as much quality time together as a family as you can. The start of a new school year will be here before we know it! We look forward to seeing you soon!

All my best, 

Tricia Campbell
