About us
Our school philosophy centers around basic beliefs about children and learning. Children are born active and inquisitive. They learn by reflecting on their interactions with the people and things around them. For this process to continue children need an environment where they are respected and trusted to make their own choices. This process of interaction results in change and growth - both for the children and for those who live and work with them. At Highland, students are actively involved in the events of daily life. As equal members of a democratic community, they are able to pursue their interests and reflect on their experiences. As a result, living and learning at Highland gives children the opportunity to grow into self-reliant and creative adults.
