Reminder to call school if your child will be late or absent

One measure of keeping our students safe is to ensure we can account for any absences or reasons for being late to school. We would like to remind you that if your child is going to be absent or late for any reason, we ask that you contact the school immediately and report the reason for the absence. If we are not informed about the absence, we will make attempts to contact you through our automated call-out system to determine the reason for the absence. 

Please call the school at (416) 395-3040

Please let the office know by calling the school if your contact information, including phone number, changes at any time throughout the school year. Thank you for your continued cooperation to keep your children safe and accounted for.

Keeping Kids Safe: Drivers are reminded to do their part to keep children safe when dropping off to school. Please follow these tips:

NEVER stop in front of the school to drop off your child; instead, drive into the school parking lot to drop off your child

We encourage drivers to continue through the parking lot, towards the exit, before letting their kids off. This will help ease congestion.

Pull forward as much as possible before letting your child out of the car; this allows for flow of traffic in and out of the parking lot

DO NOT stop your car at the first building entrance to drop your child off! This backs up traffic on the street as other cars cannot enter.

Note: The parking is one-way only. The entrance is located on the west end of the lot and the exit is located on the east end.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

This is a friendly reminder for anyone who is dropping off a lunch for a student at Highland. Please use the front visitor entrance that faces Cliffwood Rd. (by the flagpole) and leave the lunch at the main office. We ask that you remind your child to check the office to pick up their lunch.
