The JV basketball games scheduled for tonight at Monroe City have been cancelled due to sickness at both schools resulting in not enough players available to play these games. The Varsity games will be played as scheduled. The Girls game will tip off at 6pm followed by the boys. Reschedule of the JV games are pending. GO COUGARS!!

Highland Girls Wrestling team competed Monday at Mexico and tonight at Brookfield. Both were very competitive tournaments. Due to illness we were down several girls tonight, but the ones who attended represented well! Alicia Eaton earned 2 pins, Promise Coulter earned 2 pins and Calyn Mathes 1 pin. Congrats to these wrestlers! We definitely missed the rest of our teammates!

Parents/Guardians: Q2 & Semester 1 grades are available on your parent portal at this time. We have had some issues with the new system regrading Semester grade imports, so it is possible that changes may still be made to some of these grades. Reminder: to view report card grades on the TeacherEase app go to: “more”>”report cards”>”report card”. Grades can also be found under your student's report card tile via TeacherEase online. If you need help signing up for a parent account please call the high school office.

With the extremely cold temperatures overnight and the wind chill expectations through the morning, Highland will be closed tomorrow (Tuesday, 1/21/25). Temps are expected to increase starting in the afternoon, so evening contests will resume as planned & back in school 1/22/25.
