We may be a couple of days late, but we could not let Administrative Professionals Day pass without giving a special shoutout to Mrs. Walters-Francis and Mrs. Simmons for everything they do 💙
As the school year winds down, we want to recognize how much they do to keep Highlands Virtual School running smoothly. They support our full-time program, virtual flex, homeschool, and Academy students and are often the first people families connect with.
These amazing women are always ready to help students choose the right courses and go above and beyond to support parents and work with guidance counselors. They take on so many responsibilities and make it all look easy.
Thank you for everything you do to support our students, staff, and families. We appreciate you more than words can say!✨

Happy Earth Day! 🌎💚

Did you know? Virtual learning can have a positive impact on the environment! By learning from home, students help reduce daily transportation emissions, use less paper, and minimize overall resource consumption. 🚗⬇️📄

Our virtual students are in a unique position to make a difference - whether it’s using less paper, conserving energy at home, recycling, or supporting eco-friendly habits in their communities. Small choices add up to big change! ♻️✨

We also love seeing learning come to life - Mrs. Bozeman’s class is exploring plants and learning to identify each part, helping students better understand the natural world and how to care for it. 🌱🔍

Together, we can protect our planet - today and every day. 🌿 #EarthDay #Sustainability #VirtualLearning
