I think Highlands is a great place to be and that it's a great place to be. I honestly wouldn't want be anywhere else. The activities are great and all the people there are nice.

Teachers are great. Commetted to the students. Great enrichment programs, after school activites, Lego and FIRST robotics teams, and great staff. School infrastructure needs some renovation, but that is a DOE budget problem not the school. Teachers and staff are willing to help out to stretch the school budget. Active encouragement of Parent involvment. There is a small number of kids with behavior problems, but there is no problem keeping good kids away from it. Ohh! Band is great!! My son who was forced to take it (by his good for nothing parents :-) ) now loves the Alto Sax.

LIttle concern from teachers and staff for safety, academics, and ethics. I would not send my children back to this school. When I withdrew them to another school - there was no hesitation whatsover - it was a common occurrence, forms were preprinted and ready just for the asking. That alone should say something.
HIS is a great school. My son just came from a DoDEA school on Guam and I was very concerned about him fitting in with the locals and bullying issues. However, he hasn't had any problems and has many friends of various ethnicities there. The teachers are wonderful and stay on top of the students daily with the use of an agenda that is stamped by the teacher. It is very helpful in collaborating. Being both a former teacher and a parent, this school gets an A+
