Extracurricular

We are pleased to be able to provide you with Extracurricular activities throughout the year.  We encourage you to take advantage of these opportunities and find ways to become involved at Highland.  Extracurricular activities typically take place outside of the regular school day, either before or after school, or at times, over the lunch time in place of recess. These activities can change from year to year and vary from school to school. We have extracurricular in the form of Clubs, Organizations, Performing Arts and Athletics.  For more information, contact the teacher listed on the description pages below or on the Athletics pages.  We hope you have a successful and rewarding school year.
