These numbers represent enrolment on September 30 as submitted to Alberta Education.

Program enrolment may not equal a school's total enrolment because:

  • students may be enrolled in more than one program, and
  • some programs are not shown.

Enrolment data gives parents a general understanding of the number of students at a school or enrolled in a program. Although we’ve made every reasonable effort to ensure the data is accurate, there may still be errors. To confirm enrolment, contact the school.

About Highlands School

Highlands School sets high standards for academics, safety and student well-being. Our learning environment is positive, caring and supportive of individual differences, allowing students to take risks in the pursuit of excellence. We offer the regular junior high program as well as Arts Core, Pre-Advanced Placement, Behaviour and Learning Assistance and, for Grades 8 and 9, Knowledge and Employability.

As a member of Partners for Kids, we partner with community organizations to support our students and families. Some students are involved with the Hockey Heroes program, and we offer breakfast and lunch programs. Our parent advisory council and the Highlands Parent and Alumni Association are very supportive and provide extras like laptop computers and interactive whiteboards for our classrooms.

SCHOOL PHILOSOPHY

We believe:

  • That all students are capable of achieving success
  • In building strong relationships with students, parents and the community
  • In our motto, “Learning with respect, responsibility, pride”
