Refuses to allow my son to bring his Epi-pen even though I filled out the paper work months ago. His teacher never turned in the paperwork. My kid has started calling himself names since going here. He went to 2 other schools before this one and never had as many problems.

The class teacher was very pro-active and staff co-operative. My son was rewarded for good work.

This was the worst school ever. I requested a meeting with the principal and the teacher. It took them almost a month to get back to me. The only reason with they answered me then is because I filed a complaint with the school board. Beware, this school is listed on the louisiana watchlist which means that it is one step away from being listed a failing school.

I attended Highland School when it first opened in 1942(?) in the first grade shortly after Pearl Harbor. Our family was transferred to Atlanta after attending the 45th grade. When I entered the school in Atlanta, I was one year ahead of everyone there.
