- Serrano Middle School is a small middle school located in Highland,California. This school provides full time eduction, helps students in need, has a large amount of young talented students who are bright and well educated. So for those of you who do not agree with me and just go somewhere else and leave me and my school alone! We students love it here at Serrano and will like for a little peace while we prepare ourselves for our educational future.
