Maple Landvoigt, M.D. (‘93)

“My time at Highland had a significant impact on my career by cultivating problem solving skills as well as giving me the opportunity to develop self-discipline and persistence in pursuing my goals.”

Jodi Smith ('95)

"While at Highland, I learned to be accountable to other school members and myself which has helped me in my life be a strong, confident, open-minded wife and mother."

Noel McCutchan ('98)

"As a young EMT, the ability I learned at Highland to interact with different age groups and be responsible allowed me to gain the confidence and trust of both my co-workers and patients."

In 2006 our General School Meeting voted to take the first steps toward creating Highland's democratic boarding program. In Spring 2009, the ribbon was cut on our new, very comfortable, home-style dormitory. With the completion of a new gymnasium in Spring 2010, The Highland School will have finished its physical expansion and will be ready for our planned rise in enrollment. We accept children as young as 4. Apply now for our boarding and day programs.

Begin the admissions process

Our rolling admissions policy allows us to admit students year round. (1) Request and return an application. (2) Schedule a visiting week. (3) Your child's visiting week ends with an interview for you and your child after which an admissions decision is made.

Sign up for summer camp

Our sleepaway camp from June 18-27 is a great way to try democratic education without your child having to miss school. Campers plan their own week on our 500 acre campus ending with an outdoor trip to see what makes West Virginia wild and wonderful.
