High Hills Elementary School is one of the best schools my family has been a part of. As a military family, our children have attended many schools in their short lives. The teachers and administrators at High Hills Elementary School were the first people to take the time to get to know our children's struggles and come up with effective methods for helping them learn. We are grateful that our children got the chance to attend High Hills!

As an educator, I look forward to coming to work here at High Hills everyday. The atmosphere and the morale is always high. Even though it's been over 20 years since I started it seems like yesterday. I love being able to make an impact on my students' lives, helping them grow, learn and help them achieve the impossible.
