We have exciting news to share! π
Highland County Public Schools has been selected as one of Virginia Livingβs 2026 Top Schools & Universities, an honor we are incredibly proud of.
Virginia Livingβs editors use a holistic evaluation process, considering academic performance in reading, writing, and math, as well as key student success indicators such as on-time graduation rates, dropout rates, and overall educational quality. Being recognized through this comprehensive lens makes this distinction especially meaningful.
Our district will be featured in the MarchβApril 2026 issue of Virginia Living Magazine as part of their annual State of Education section, a trusted resource families across the Commonwealth rely on when searching for high-quality educational opportunities.
This recognition is a direct reflection of the hard work and dedication of our students, staff, families, and community. Thank you for your continued support and commitment to excellence in education.
Congratulations, Highland County Public Schools! This achievement is well deserved! πππ
