Feedback
Students and parents speak out about HTH:
"Highland Tech puts its students first, it is a very supportive, challenging and responsive learning environment based on individual need."
- FROM A PARENT AND STUDENT |

"On the first day (of college) I can already see that my Highland education will put me ahead of the game."
- GRAD. SENIOR |

"The Highland (teachers) have definitely succeeded in preparing us for college."

"Highland Tech High gives everyone of its students possibilities that are endless. We're able to video-conference with Mayor Mark Begich, have e-pals in Mexico, or even play DDR at lunch. Being able to work ahead also gives students a chance to graduate early, or on time but when they're ready."
- CURRENT JUNIOR, set to graduate |

"I started taking college classes this year at the University of Alaska Anchorage and have noticed the classes are similar there and at Highland. Highland not only prepares you for life after your high school education, but for the real world."
