Dress Standards Reminder: As the weather gets warmer we need to bring attention to the importance of following school dress standards. In particular, please make sure that your students are wearing appropriate footwear. School footwear needs to include a back strap so that they stay on the feet when playing outside. We know that students love their flip flops and slides but they are not allowed because they are not consider safe footwear for school. Please also take note of the guidelines for sleeve width and shorts/skirt lengths. Thank you for helping encourage this for students and following these same guidelines when visiting the school as volunteers. (ASD Policy 5152 can give you more detail.) If you have any other questions please reach out to the office.
Students will have an opportunity to shop with their class when they visit the library or can come before school. The Book Fair is open 7:30-7:50AM each morning before school. For the best shopping experience and easiest payment set up an e-wallet for your student.
Happy Shopping
We've enjoyed so much the participation of so many of our 3rd-6th grade students in Chess Club. As we reach the end of the competition bracket, our final Chess Club event will be held tonight. We will be hosting a Human Chess Game at 6PM. We will meet in the cafeteria. The two students who are leading in the tournament will direct the human chess game for 30 minutes. The human chess pieces will be students from chess club and family members. It will be a fun event and we invite anyone who has been in Chess Club or who is interested to watch to attend.
Today the Council PTA Recognized Volunteers, Teachers, and Staff from each school in our Lone Peak area. We are "Lucky" to have these amazing people at Highland.
Volunteer: Malia Shaw

Have a great day, we hope you catch that Leprechaun.
