Celebrating 50 Years!

This September Highlands celebrates fifty years of A Higher Degree of Learning. Mrs. Evalina Brown Spencer opened Highlands School in 1958 with sixty students from four years of age through first grade. Today the faculty and families of Highlands continue to realize Mrs. Spencer's vision of a school that prepares children academically, physically, and ethically in a caring environment with over two hundred and sixty students from four years of age through eighth grade.
