At Highland, we believe that the essential elements of quality education are much more than the traditional three r’s of reading, writing, and arithmetic.That’s why we’ve identified the Five C’s of Critical Thinking, Creativity, Communication, Collaboration and Leadership, and Character to serve as the backbone of a Highland education.
SEE THE WORLD IN A NEW WAY
No matter if you’re getting these Five C’s through your involvement in academics, athletics, or the fine and performing arts (and very likely it’s a combination of all of these), you’re going to see the world and your place in it in a different way. And that’s the point.
At Highland, we believe that an education should go far beyond learning facts, figures, and test-taking techniques. A 21st century education is rooted in essential skills – the Five C’s – that you can use not only through college, but throughout your entire life.
