My son transferred to South Highlands this year as a second grader, and he transferred from a very strong neighborhood school. I cannot tell you how wonderful this experience has been! I wish all students could know what it is like to go to a school where EVERYONE is dedicated to making you a success in learning. They set the bar very high, and the kids reach the bar! A tough decision to leave our neighborhood school, but he is reaping a benefit that his other school would not have been able to provide. We love you. South Highlands!
