The school looks great, is kept clean, but a lot of students are incredibly disruptive and some of the teachers give empty threats about giving the bad students in school suspension. Education wise it’s not so bad. Deadlines are difficult to keep up with but that’s not the school’s fault, that’s on me. I’m going into 8th this year and have been going since 6th and so far I haven’t had any problems other than other students being big distractions by being disruptive.

During the past year, the teachers, coaches and administrators at Highland Middle amazed me. Covid-19 put up serious obstacles and they surmounted all of them. I was moved to tears at the way the coaches and principal spoke of their love and pride in the students at the athletic banquet. My child exceeded in his EOGs and was able to develop and maintain good relationships with his peers and faculty even while doing at home learning. I could not be happier with this school. Thank you to all staff, teachers, coaches, and admins for the incredible job you did this year. I’m so grateful for each of you.

The school looks nice but the staff over looks the real issues the children deal with.

My daughter and son attend this school and I couldn't be happier. The principal Mr. Graham is amazing. He has such a great attitude and really cares about the students' success. He inspires and motivates. They have great teachers who really work hard to motivate the students as well. The homework system is set up for the success of all the students and if they need help, it is available for them. This school stands out above all the others we have attended.

My daughter is in gifted and talented services at this schools. Overall I have to say that I am satisfied with the school. She still would benefit from more acceleration as she completed all the requirements from one of her subjects earlier in the year and had nothing else to do because lack of materials I guess. But besides that the school is new, the teachers are personable and professional and the rest of the staff have been very helpful to our needs. This school like one poster said is setting the bar for what NC schools should be.

Highland is a nice new shiny school with high efficiency and extremely motivated teachers and faculty. The school is upping the bar for public North Carolina schools. I'm very proud to have my child going to this school.
