High Plains Elementary

High Plains Community,

We have seen an increase of parents parking in the parent pick-up/drop-off lane and getting out of the car or waiting for a family member to walk students up to the door. Traffic needs to continue to move in this lane, it is a fire lane and needs to be accessible for emergencies at all times. If you need to get out of the car or wait, please utilize our parking lot or street parking.

Thank you for your attention to this important matter for the safety of our High Plains community!

Robert Romero, Principal

If you have not completed or survey regarding next school year, please do so by April, 18th. This helps us with planning for the upcoming school year. Thank you for your attention to this important task!

Parents - we need you to make sure your household information is updated in our school directory, Membership Toolkit! Please log into membership toolkit and update your family information, what contact info you want in the directory, and your child's teacher. This will ensure families can reach you through the school directory, that you receive HP PTCO updates (events, reminders, etc.) and that you'll receive messages from your room parents for teacher celebrations, class parties, and more.
