Greetings, Highland CUSD No. 5 Parents and Staff, I want to be definitive on the schedule for this week, but what I can communicate at this time without hesitation is that the Teacher's Institute scheduled for today was canceled and is scheduled for tomorrow (January 7, 2025). This means that the students will return to school on Wednesday, January 8. Our facilities team is hard at work to clear drives and walkways for tomorrow (Teacher's Institute). We anticipate some refreezing so please be careful to and from school and around the buildings and parking lots. Good luck digging out today and be careful!
Congratulations to the HHS Varsity Dance Team for their outstanding performance at the Edwardsville regional on Saturday. They placed 3rd in IHSA. In IDTA competition, lyrical and open Pom placed 2nd, and jazz earned 1st! Ava Fischer also earned the Rising Star award!🐾
It may be a great surprise, but the Teacher's Institute for tomorrow, Monday, January 6, will be postponed to Tuesday, January 7. Unless further notified, students will return to school on Wednesday, January 8th. Thanks, and enjoy the snow!
Superintendent, Mike Sutton
Happy New Year from HHS! We wish you all the best in 2025!
