About Highlands School District

Located 20 miles north of Pittsburgh, PA, Highlands School District comprises the municipalities of Fawn Township, Harrison Township, Brackenridge Borough and Tarentum Borough. The current enrollment at Highlands is approximately 2,400 students. We have a professional staff of about 225 educators and administrators, and a support staff of about 100, including secretaries, aides, food service, custodians/maintenance, security personnel. Highlands firmly believes that our children's futures begin with a strong foundation, built piece by piece at home, in the community, and in our schools. We set goals each year to improve upon programs, educational services and facilities that will help our students build a solid foundation and establish lifelong skills that they can use to continue to grow. Our students are challenged with innovative curriculum and motivating teachers. We expect all of our students to be Respectful, Accountable, Motivated and Safe (RAMS) individuals, and only accept behaviors and attitudes reflecting those qualities in the classroom, on the playground, during free time, and while participating in extracurricular activities and athletics.
