This Pride Month, we're highlighting students and staff who help create spaces where everyone feels seen, valued and supported. Across Highline that looks different from school to school.

End-of-year secondary report cards are now available in ParentVUE. A report card communicates your student’s learning progress during the grading period. All Highline schools use standards-based grading, and students’ scores reflect this.

A message from Superintendent Ivan Duran. "As we wrap up another school year, I hope you'll take a moment to reflect on the memories that will stay with your family long after summer begins." 

This summer, Highline will begin moving student files from Google Drive to Microsoft OneDrive.This is part of Highline's move to Microsoft tools for students. Students will begin using more Microsoft tools in the fall. Most families do not need to take action right now

Planning is underway for the future home of CHOICE Academy. A committee of staff, families and students gathered for another design meeting focused on transforming the former Southern Heights Elementary School building into a renewed learning space for students. 

Highline is financially stable because of steady enrollment and difficult budget adjustments made in recent years. To maintain that stability, the proposed 2026–27 budget includes about $8 million in reductions, including central office reductions, while prioritizing resources that directly support students and classrooms.

Parkside Elementary students and staff spent the day at Waskowitz for a schoolwide field trip planned by Parkside teachers and school leaders. After six years, this end-of-year field trip is now a tradition that connects students to each other, to hands-on science in nature and to their own potential.

This year, our secondary schools focused on helping students grow as readers, thinkers and speakers in every subject area. Students had more opportunities to read challenging texts, build vocabulary, discuss ideas with classmates and connect learning to their own lives and experiences. Teachers also worked to create classrooms where students feel seen, heard, and supported.
