Welcome to
Highlands Elementary

Welcome to the Highlands Elementary School website! 

We are proud to partner with you in the education of our Highlands students. We take a holistic approach to education and are constantly striving to build an inclusive and welcoming community. At Highlands, we cultivate a supportive environment in which children grow intellectually, emotionally, and socially. Providing strong academics is at the core of what we do, as is helping children explore new interests, nurture friendships, resolve conflicts, and develop strong senses of self in the context of their communities. 

Our staff is a group of deeply talented and dedicated educators. They are invested in our community and are committed to providing all children a high-quality education that both challenges and supports them. Our curriculum seeks to nurture critical thinking, problem solving, and perseverance. For details, please visit the BPS curriculum pages. 

Our PTO is active and deeply embedded in our Highlands community; please reach out to them directly if you would like to join their work.

I am humbled and honored to collaborate with you in our collective work. If you have any questions or if I can be of assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out. I am looking forward to a terrific school year!

Dr. Caitlin Long
