Highland Community — We Want Your Feedback!

Highland Community School District is excited to continue building an even stronger future for our students, staff, and community—and we are inviting feedback from our families as an important part of that work. We believe that when our staff is united around a clear and shared vision, we create the strongest possible foundation for student success. A unified direction helps ensure that our work across PK–12 is aligned, intentional, and focused on what matters most—supporting every student’s growth, achievement, and well-being.

We believe Highland is at its best when we are united around a shared purpose. Your feedback will help us:
• Strengthen alignment across our PK–12 system
• Create a clearer, more unified direction as a district
• Ensure our commitments reflect Highland’s values and the hopes we all share for our students
