My child said the lunches are terrible complained to other schools. We attend the musicals and they're so terrible. The school puts all its money into filming the musical and when we went over to her friends house to watch it (because my daughter was sick) and the quality was so terrible on the DVD. The teachers are mean and discriminatory. My daughters 2nd grade teacher slapped her in the face and she's constantly bullied! One time, when my daughter was being bullied, the teacher on recess duty blamed MY DAUGHTER for bullying the girl first and the child who was bullying her got off Scott free! It's ridiculous the amount of bullying in Highland! My daughter came home crying off the bus toward the end of the school year and she said she was punched before they boarded the busses and the person who say with her was insulting her for feeling pain. I'm not sending my youngest there.

The teachers and the staff were very quick to tell me that all my child's problems were my fault, but never even considered what was right in front of their eyes: my daughter has a learning disability that I discovered after they told me what a horrible parent I was.
