Students
Congratulations on the CSAP Scores!
- Highline out-performed the district in all but one testing category.
- Highline out-performed the state in 55% of our testing categories.
- Highline showed the greatest improvement over the district of any charter school in DPS. We out performed the district’s growth in 75% of testing categories.
- We saw the greatest growth in our writing scores—an area of curriculum focus this year.
We actively prepare students to succeed in the diverse environments that await them—in college, in the work place, and in community life—by teaching them about responsibility, empowerment, aspiration, citizenship, and honesty. These are the five key character traits emphasized through our REACH program.
Every month, students who consistently demonstrate the school’s REACH goals are nominated by their classroom teacher and chosen by the school administration to add their handprint to Highlines’ REACH for Success Wall located in the middle school cafeteria. During a celebration ceremony, three different awards are given:
Reach Up: The Booker T. Washington Award
for outstanding achievement in academics.
Reach In: The Alduous Huxley Award
for recognition of self-growth.
Reach Out: The Margaret Mead Award
for service to the community.
