As a student of Highland High School, I can clearly say that I am very proud to go to a school as dedicated as this one, This school is, in my opinion, the most balanced school you could possibly have. It is a shame that they want to shut it down after this year.

This school has really good intentions. The curriculum is great. The teachers for the most part care if you care. Everyone is really nice. We even have some local stars at our school. We have stars from Broadway and we also have stars who have danced in music videos. It's just a regular school that every ones kid should attend.
