Quality Education: A Community Commitment
We were proud to see one of the Highland Middle School grants come to life this week as every 8th grade student stepped onto the campus of Purdue University Northwest. Thanks to the dedication of Mrs. Vis, Mrs. Scheidt, and Mrs. Fagen, all of our 8th graders had the opportunity to tour the campus. Their student guides provided thoughtful and detailed tours, sharing what college life is like and everything the university has to offer. Watching the students explore the campus with excitement and curiosity was incredibly powerful. Experiences like this help students begin to picture their future and expand what they believe is possible.
This is exactly what our grants are meant to do. Create opportunities, inspire dreams, and support meaningful learning in and beyond the classroom. 🍎

We need to thank some of our National Juniors Honor Society members from Highland Middle School! They helped us set up our Trivia Night event. They did such a nice job. They were very efficient and helpful! Thank you Mrs.Beanblossom for sending them our way. ( Marco is not pictured, he was helping us hang posters throughout the hall.) Thank you to all of them!
