Transportation
Highland Transportation department is dedicated to safe and efficient transportation for our students. As we embark on another year, here are a few quick reminders, have your student at the stop 5 minutes prior to the buses arrival, please allow approximately 15 minutes for the first couple of weeks as the drivers are adjusting to new routes, new students etc. Brightly colored clothing and lighted driveways are also a huge help.
Highland district is approximately 124 square miles and our buses travel approximately 2250 miles per day. The mechanics work tirelessly in assuring that the buses are as mechanically sound as possible. We are looking forward to another wonderful year here at Highland Local Schools.
