To those that had a T-Mobile Hotspot through the school, those devices should be working again as of today with unlimited data. This will be at least through the end of 2023 and possibly longer. We do have additional hotspots for Highland student households that need internet!

Highland had a bus catch fire behind the HS after school today with no kids on the bus and nobody injured. It was an electrical fire in the cockpit on one of our propane buses (not a fuel fire). Fire has been extinguished and the bus removed. Cause is unknown, but nobody hurt!
HES wants to wish good luck to our Cougars as they take on Macon at home tonight as well as all of our other competing athletes this weekend!
