The Highlands School

40 Years of Forming Hearts. Minds. Leaders.

For 40 years, The Highlands School has believed that education is about far more than what a student knows. It is about who that student becomes.

At Highlands, every child is known, valued, challenged, and encouraged to discover the unique gifts God has given them. From Pre-K3 through 12th grade, our students receive an education that forms the whole person: mind, heart, and spirit.

This is what makes Highlands different.

Our teachers do more than teach. They know their students personally. They mentor them, challenge them to think deeply, walk alongside them through successes and struggles, and inspire them to become the very best version of themselves. In our classrooms, on the field, on the stage, and throughout our community, students are given the opportunity to discover their talents, develop their character, and find their purpose.

For 40 years, our Catholic mission and Integral Formation® philosophy have guided us in preparing young people not only for college and career, but for a life of faith, purpose, leadership, and service. We form authentic Catholic leaders who understand that their gifts are not meant for themselves alone—they are called to use them to make a difference in the lives of others and in the world around them.

Forty years later, that calling remains at the heart of who we are.

As we celebrate 40 years of forming hearts, minds, and leaders, we invite you to help carry this mission forward. Your North Texas Giving Day gift invests directly in the people, programs, and opportunities that make a Highlands education so transformative.

Together, we can continue to form young people who learn deeply, live faithfully, lead courageously, and are #CalledToMakeADifference.

Why Your Support Matters

For 40 years, The Highlands School has remained committed to providing an exceptional Catholic education while keeping that education within reach of families in our community.

As an independent school, Highlands does not receive public funding or parish subsidies. Our school is primarily supported by tuition paid by our families. Because we choose to keep Highlands within reach of more families, tuition does not cover the full cost of the education we provide.

Annual Fund support allows us to continue offering the exceptional teachers, programs, opportunities, and personal formation that define the Highlands experience.

Your gift provides the flexibility to respond to the needs of our students and school today, supporting the people and resources that make a difference in their daily experience, from academics and technology to the arts, athletics, student activities, campus improvements, and the many opportunities that allow every student to discover and develop their God-given talents.

This is what it means to invest in the whole person. It is what allows us to know our students personally, challenge them to grow, and give them the opportunity to excel both inside and outside the classroom.

As we celebrate 40 years of forming hearts, minds, and leaders, your gift helps ensure that the Highlands experience remains strong, accessible, and faithful to our mission for generations to come.

Together, we are not simply sustaining a school. We are investing in the formation of young people who are Called to Make a Difference.
