Update regarding the fire at Highland High School April 21, 2023 10:00A.M.:

PCSD 25 district administration will be meeting with Highland High School administration and staff members later this morning to address short-term plans moving forward. While we do not have many confirmed details to share at this time, here is what we know: the safety and well-being of our learners and staff is our highest priority. This situation is going to require patience and stamina as we work together as a community to continue to serve Highland learners and staff in the best way possible. We appreciate the outpouring of support and goodwill that we have received both locally and across the state including Governor Little’s office and the Idaho Superintendent of Schools. We will continue to keep Highland families updated throughout the days and weeks to come with details as they are confirmed.
