Last night on 1-29-26 the Highland Quiz Bowl Team traveled to South Shelby where we won the J.V. match 200-100, immediately following that we picked up our 1st Varsity win by the score of 220-180. Hooray! This morning we traveled to Quincy to participate in the WGEM Academic Challenge where we took on a veteran squad from QND who won the match by the score of 400 to 140. The Kids had fun and it was a valuable learning experience for our very young team. Go Cougars!!!

HIGHLAND IS HIRING!

LCC1 is looking for coaches!

The Highland Quiz Bowl Team consisting of 3 Freshmen and 1 Sophomore took on Centralia tonight and played a J.V. match 1st and won by a score of 200 to 60. The same four underclassmen then played Centralia 's varsity team but lost respectfully 280 to 170. Long time Highland coach Mr. Sparks commented "that was the most points he could ever remember Highland scoring against Centralia." Go Highland!!!
