enrichment Information

Welcome to the Spring 2025 Semester.

Welcome back to High Country! I hope you all enjoyed a joyous holiday season as we celebrated Jesus’s birth and how much He loves us. I am excited to get back to seeing you all onsite for classes and at our upcoming events. Below you will find lots of ways to connect with one another. This community has been a blessing to my family and I pray that it will be the same for yours. I encourage you all to jump right in and say hi to those around you. You never know how much these fellow homeschooling families will impact your life! It is a privilege to serve and do life with you all.

Playground Safety: Playground gates are EXIT only. For the safety of all attending HC we need to enter the SOUTH entrance only. The playground should be entered from the main hallway in the building and then you are welcome to exit the playground gate as you leave for the day. Parents are responsible for monitoring their own children. We have many restaurants, busy streets, and I-25 right near us. Please help us maintain good safety standards.

Thank you for you cooperation!
