As we celebrate Staff and Teacher Appreciation Week, we are so very grateful for all of our Highland CUSD No. 5 employees. Our team is committed to making our organization the best it can be for students, staff, and the community. It's tough work, but essential for the future. Thank you for your passion, energy, and dedication to our schools and all that you do each day. You make a difference. If you see one of our staff this week, be sure to say hello, send them a kind email, or share a smile and say thank you. They deserve it and appreciate the support in a day and age when working in a school takes heart and soul.

Our Girls on the Run teams took our donations to the Humane Society today. They were very grateful to receive the supplies. The girls did a great job running there and are showing that they are ready for our Color Run on Tuesday.
