8/15/26 Hello School Town of Highland families and staff, School Town of Highland remains closed as our community continues to recover from the August 11 storm. At this time, our buildings do not have stable power sources and are operating on generators. After a meeting with Highland Public Works, we are tentatively scheduling the first day for teachers for Monday, August 24, and the first day for students for Tuesday, August 25. Our High School will provide updates regarding the Area Career Center's start date. Please also check FamilyID for athletic updates. These dates could change depending on whether we have stable power to our buildings, the walking conditions for our students traveling to their bus stops, and the driving conditions for our bus drivers. We will provide everyone with a building update on Tuesday, August 18. If your family is in need of assistance, please contact your building principal. Thank you for your patience and support. We can't wait to welcome everyone back. Regards, John Schwuchow, Ph.D. Incoming School Town of Highland Superintendent
