Highlands Goals
Goal #1
At Highlands Elementary School, we practice inclusion and self-regulation while aiming to increase capacity in our students and staff by explicitly demonstrating and valuing acceptance, and teaching all students social-emotional learning (SEL) skills and self-regulation strategies.
Goal #2
At Highlands Elementary School, we strive for all students to improve their literacy and numeracy competencies through explicit, daily instruction and practice based on research-proven strategies.
