Principal’s Message
Dear Cowboy Families,
At Highlands Elementary our mission is to provide an inclusive and positive environment where we inspire our scholars to be passionate lifelong learners while creating memories, achieving success, and becoming productive members of society.
As we begin the 2026-2027 school year, we hope your Cowboy is ready to learn because our Cowboys are going to Rise To The Challenge this year!
Being present and on time every day is important to each student both academically and socially.
Our school hours are 8:20am-3:15pm (Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri) and 8:20am-2:15pm (Wed)
Breakfast begins at 7:50am
The walker and car loop gates open at 7:50am and will close at 8:15am.
If your student is a car rider, please be prepared to load and unload your student from the passenger side of the vehicle for safety. This will prevent students and staff from having to walk between vehicles during arrival and dismissal.
As a space magnet school, our Cosmic Cowboys will have opportunties to learn and grow in Science, Reading, and Math. We look forward to all of the learning experiences our students will have this year including a new STEAM block for students in Grades 3-5! We also have our new school garden to maintain, which was planted by teachers, staff, and the community during our Earth Day celebration in April. We can’t wait to see everyone for our Title 1 Family Nights, so mark your calendars now – Math Night on October 14, Literacy Night on January 27, and STEM Night (including our STEM Mobile Lab) on March 24.
We are excited to keep learning and growing with our Cowboys this year! YeeHaw!
Your Proud Principal,
Ashlee Langley, Ed.D.
