4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is my son's 3rd year at highlands. He has just begun his 3rd grade year. He was reading at a 4th grade level at the end of 2nd grade. The teachers and administration are clearly dedicated to the student's educations. They are open and willing to listen. This has been an excellent experience. I forgot to add, I love the small class sizes.Parent Review6y ago - duPont (Alexis I.) Middle School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy Daughter is a sophomore at AIHS and has had a wonderful experience so far. She is in their Early College Academy program, which has been great! Excellent staff! Principal is very involved and enthusiastic! Excellent communication from school; receive texts, social media alerts and emails. Could use more parent participation, but from what I hear, that is a common issue in High Schools.Parent Review7y ago

"I lived in the Highlands for 28 years and loved every minute of it. Growing up, I walked to school, church, playground, grocery store, after school job, friends’ houses, and restaurants. As a young adult living with my parents, I walked to work, bars, and enjoyed taking public transportation to school. Neighbors I grew up hanging out with from the Highlands were guests at my sister’s wedding. "

"Neighbors are nice but don’t invade your space. Great parks especially for dogs at Rockford park and other nearby river walks. Unfortunately I pick up a lot of broken glass along the way and my dogs have cut their paws on trails along the river where the old train track used to run. People come and have their graduation pictures taken in the Gibraltar estate and unfortunately some leave their trash in our bushes and sidewalks. Take your trash with you! "
