Please note that there has been a change to this week’s school lunch menu.
We’re excited to share Episode 5 of Conversations with the Superintendent! In this episode, we cover several important district updates — from how Highland makes winter weather decisions, to highlights from our winter sports programs, to the exploration of summer programming and day-care options for elementary students.
This week’s guest is Dan Ruth, Highland alum, parent, and Vice President of the Highland School Board. Dan offers a thoughtful look at what inspires his service, how he approaches leadership, and the pride he carries as both a board member and parent in our district.

🐾 Go Huskies!
This is a new step for our district—bringing our BLTs together—and seeing the honest collaboration, thoughtful conversation, and shared commitment for future initiatives. It’s inspiring to watch our educators come together with openness, care, and a genuine desire to support one another and strengthen the experience for our students and staff.
It's a great day to be a Husky!
