Congratulations to our Elementary Academic Team, who came away Overall Regular Season Champs and 2nd in Quick Recall for the regular season. There were also several individual placements who came away with medals tonight. Go wildcats! 🐾
Superintendent Cochran's Thrillshare post of the week for February 9th-15th goes to Jessica Adams and Highland Elementary. First grade students conducting student-led conferences and taking ownership of their own learning! Way to go Wildcats! #Eagle4Life
Valentine’s Day fun in 3rd Grade
Thank you to Doug Beckhart and Norton Children’s Hospital for bringing the Bike Safety Rodeo to Highland Elementary. Our 4th and 5th graders had a great time participating and learning the rules of the road.
Music to a math teacher’s ears!

Johnson County Schools will be in session Thursday, February 13th operating on a 2 hour delay.
My first graders rocked student-led conferences tonight. They took charge! They handled sign-ins, discussed their goals, the plans they made to achieve those goals, and shared work samples. I was there for moral support-that’s it! I could not be more proud. ❤️ #studentleaders #futureleaders #theleaderinme

Valentine Dance for Kindergarten - 2nd grade, Thursday, Feb. 13 - during school day
Valentine Dance - 3rd - 6th - Friday, Feb 14. - 5:00 - 7:00
Just a reminder: Highland Elementary does not accept Valentine deliveries.
Due to some roads being covered with backwaters and more rain on the way Johnson County Schools will be on a 2 hour delay. This will prevent buses and staff from traveling before daylight and provide additional time to reassess the situation.
Jax completed the STEAM Challenge. His origami boomerang traveled across the room and back. Lots of FOLDING! #origami #learningbydoing
