This is the last week to pick up more candy bars! The PTO needs your help to reach our goal of selling at least 100 more boxes! Make sure to keep selling! Remember, everyone is a lot happier with chocolate in their hands! 🍫🍫


Parents today you will get the after-school form for the k-6th graders signed up for cheer camp. The dates we have been told are showing wrong. It should say 10/5/23. The time is from 3:30 to 5:30. Since the form is prefill able i could not change the time from 4:30 to 5:30. The shuttle buses still go at 5:30 and stop at the same locations.
The camp will be at the HHS Gym due to conflicting activities at the HES Gym. If you are picking up, it will be at the HHS building.


Reminder that tonight's JV Football game at Louisiana has been cancelled due to low player numbers at Louisiana.

Tonight is Teal the Field night at Highland, as the Highland Lady Cougars will host the Palmyra Lady Panthers. JV will play first at 5PM with Varsity to follow.
