👀 Look who we found “hiding” in our baseball field this morning! 🦌 This little one may look alone, but its mother is likely nearby keeping a watchful eye. If you come across a baby deer, please remember: do not touch it or move it. Fawns are often left hidden while their mothers forage and will return to care for them. We were thankful for this special visitor and happy to leave it safe and undisturbed! 🦌🌿

🏛️ Our Highland High School gifted middle and high school students recently enjoyed an enriching trip to Thomas Jefferson’s home, Monticello! Students toured the historic home and grounds, learning fascinating details about Jefferson’s life, family, careers, and many accomplishments. 🇺🇸✨

The adventure continued with a visit to the University of Virginia, where students explored the campus and compared its architectural features to those they observed at Monticello. They were especially amazed by the impressive Alderman Library, spanning 5 floors and more than 250,000 square feet! 🤯📖

What a wonderful opportunity to bring history, architecture, and higher education to life through hands-on learning!
