Next week, when we return from fall break, the photographers will be at the school for picture retakes. Photo retake day is Thursday, October 22nd.
Any student who missed getting their picture taken in September and those wishing to have retakes will have their photo taken.
If you want to get retakes, you will need to return the original photo packet with your child. That will be how we know who is getting them.
If you liked the photos from the original photo day you can still order them through the Eastman Adams website.
Highland is an A.L.L. School. We have A.L.L. classes in 3rd-6th grade and many of our students in 6th Grade qualify for Advanced Placement in Jr. High.
To be considered for the A.L.L. classes, students must participate in a district-administered placement test. The testing window for 2nd, 6th, and 7th graders for next year's placement (2027/2028) is open from October through November. For students currently in a "non-entry" grade 3rd, 4th, and 5th for the 2027/2028 school year, the assessment will take place in February and March.
If you believe the A.L.L. program would be a good fit for your student, complete the application links. If you still have questions, please look through our information links for details and answers to questions, or contact one of our directors using the contact information at the bottom of the page.
We have quite of few of our 2nd grade students participate in this test and begin A.L.L. in 3rd Grade. Please take a moment to signup before the end of the registration window tomorrow.
Candy From the Roof and Popsicles at Recess had to be postponed this week due to the rain, but we will make sure those happen next week after Fall Break.
Please remember that there is NO SCHOOL on Thursday or Friday for Fall Break, and NO SCHOOL on Monday for Teacher Work Day. We hope you'll enjoy this long weekend following all of the excitement tomorrow.
They have some open spots. If you have any questions or would like physical copies, feel free to email the family advocate, Alejandra Larson, at brios@eleutah.org.

Students get to dress up on Wednesday as a super hero! We'll also have the dance party and rewards assembly on Wednesday. During the rewards assembly, Mr. Killpack and Mr. Campbell will be turned into human sundaes!! We can't wait for all of the fun.
We want to thank our sponsors! Our corporate sponsors made it possible to ensure that EVERY student at Highland received a Hawk Walk Race Kit and their donations helped push us over the school fundraising goal. This means that students will get Candy from the Roof (Monday weather depending), Popsicles at Lunch on Tuesday, and the DANCE PARTY, Super Hero Dress Up Day and Rewards Assembly all on Wednesday - at the rewards assembly we will be turning Mr. Killpack and Mr. Campbell into human sundaes!! We are so excited.
Have a great weekend and rest up after the great race!!
It’s finally here – HAWK WALK DAY is TOMORROW! We can’t believe our luck that we get to spend part of our day having this fun race tomorrow. Please check your email for all of the details about tomorrow's event.
Students have until Friday to decorate their shirts. Please remember that shirts still need to look like shirts and cover them. No additional graphics should be added. The shirts need to stay school appropriate.
Please be aware: We had higher requests for some of the shirt sizes. Unfortunately this required changing some of the sizes. If your child comes home with a size slightly different than you ordered please know that we tried our best and chose the closest size possible.
We are so very close to meeting our goal. Late Donations are now open if you want to add a little more to our total to help us get there.
Final details about the race will be sent home tomorrow.
It's Hawk Walk Week! We are getting ready for race day.
Students have earned enough for the School Wide Dance Party - help us get to the cherry on top. Every dollar helps us get closer to our goal of turning Mr. Killpack and Mr. Campbell into human sundaes. Let's see if we can get enough donations to top it off!
Today is the final day to order your Race Kits! Make sure you've got all of that extra SWAG you want for the race. If you've already ordered your kit and want to donate more to help us reach our goal, you can use the general donation option from SchoolCash Online.
Let the countdown to race day begin.....only 4 days to go!
Visitors are invited to attend the Hawk Walk on Friday the 9th. Please be courteous of our neighbors and each other with parking. Enter through any of the outside gates - the school building will be completely locked from 9:30AM until after the race.
Have a great rest of your weekend.
Tomorrow is our school wide Read-A-Thon and Pajama Day!
