Text Box: Welcome from the Highland Middle School Staff:

Welcome to the Highland Middle School Parent and Student Informational Website.  This website was created as a map to parents and students to navigate their way through the middle school years.  This website will provide information and links that relate to the current Highland Middle School Program, and also information and links to the physical, intellectual, emotional, and social needs of your children as they branch out through the middle school experience.  Use the icons on the left hand side of the page to take you to the appropriate information that you desire.  For the complete experience, start on page two and read your way through to the end.
Text Box: Greetings from the host of the site:

My name is Charles Franchetti, and I am currently a sixth grade teacher at Highland Middle School.  I have been a teacher in this school district for six years, and I currently teach Social Studies.  For many years I have seen the Middle School experience as a key transition in students’ lives for a long time, and I developed this website in order to help parents and students to connect with their teachers in critical areas of school.  This includes an overview of the school in general, an outline of the sixth grade experience, and a breakdown of middle level students developmental stages.  The main goal of this website is to give students and parents and intensive overview of middle school at the educational level and the developmental level.  It was an experience to teach kids this age when I first started, but armed with the information in this page my job was a lot easier.
