      Clever Portal
     
    You can access several online resources through the Clever Portal above.  Highland encourages the use of Imagine (literacy or math) and Achieve 3000 (Grades 3-5).  
     
    If you have not previously logged into your child's Google account on your home device, you will initially "log in through google" using your child's full school Gmail address.  (It will not work using a parent's gmail account.)  Once this information is entered, it will prompt you to enter your child's google username and password.

    If you need any usernames/passwords, please contact your child's teacher directly.  Please allow a grace period for teacher response to these requests as it does take time.

      Students will attend their regular Zoom lessons in the morning until 12pm. For afternoon instruction, students will be provided with remote learning guidelines from their teacher. This will take the form of an independent learning task through Google Classroom.

      This will allow our teachers to attend a professional learning opportunity to collaborate with teachers from Elon Elementary and AO Elementary.

      2020-2021 School Year

      Walkers

      At this time, we will allow morning walkers only.  Walkers should follow the sidewalk along the car rider line and wait to be directed across our crosswalk.  Parents may walk with their child up to the crosswalk.  While on campus all persons should wear a mask and socially distance at least 6ft from non-family members.  

       

      We will make a determination later in the school year if we are able to allow afternoon walkers to dismiss.  For now, all students will be dismissed either by car or bus.
