Highlands Tech Club enjoyed sweet treats and creative ideas during our Doodle for Google Valentine's Day lesson!
The LaGrange Highlands School District 106 Board of Education and the Highlands Association of Teachers (HAT) have tentatively agreed to terms of a 5-year contract (2019-2024). Contract discussions had resumed on January 22, and earlier this evening, the negotiating teams met to finalize a few remaining items.
We want to thank our parents and the LaGrange Highlands community for your patience and support over this past year. We acknowledge that a process like this may at times feel challenging, especially when we strive to remain confidential regarding many of the details. We have been grateful for the community’s support and encouragement to continue working together, and this has allowed our students to continue learning without interruption.
Both the Board and the HAT will now hold votes to approve the terms of the agreement. Once this has occurred, the full contract will be made available for public release. The District 106 Board, administration, and teachers look forward to continue working together to maximize the quality of education in, and the fiscal stability of, District 106.
The Board Briefs for the January 21, 2020 Board of Education meeting are now available here.
This past Saturday, January 25th, a team of Highlands students participated in the Illinois Regional Middle School Science Bowl. The students battled against some strong competition and won two rounds but did not make it to the double-elimination round.
Last evening, the 8th grade boys' basketball team had the opportunity to play Pleasantdale at Northwestern. The team watched an exciting game as Northwestern took on Ohio State. After the college game, the Hornets took the floor against the Tigers. In a back and forth battle, the Hornets fell just short at the final buzzer. Way to go Hornets!
