Our 50th Anniversary Weekend celebrated the culmination of 50 years of memories, students, parents, staff, and new and old friends. We had visits from our founders, alumni, alumni parents, former faculty and staff, and current families and faculty. Each event was a celebration and acknowledgement of what has made High Meadows so unique and special and what our future holds for the next 50 years.

We cannot thank you enough for all the hard work and participation of all those involved in bringing it to life! We had 50 years of High Meadows community members come together in celebration of something so exceptional. It was a weekend we will never forget. Thank you!!

*Pictures coming soon!

Now that Anniversary Weekend is over, we have all our special 50th Anniversary Merchandise for sale in Franklin House.

Instead of unveiling the new merch at Fall Festival, this year, we waited for Anniversary Weekend for the new merch to make its debut.

We have our commemorative anniversary hoodie in XS Youth - Adult 3X.

We also did a special reprint of former HMS shirts for children and adults. Come to Franklin House to see those special throwback reprint shirts!

While you are here, you can grab a High Meadows picnic blanket, towel, coffee mug, hat, beanie, water bottle, tote bag, and more!

Did you take any photos this weekend? Of the campus, festivites, decorations, with your family or friends? We want them all!

We've created a community google photo album that you can upload your photos to. Once we have enough we'll share some photos on social media.

Use this link to upload your photos. Thank you for sharing with us!

Fall photo cards were sent home last week. If you didn’t receive one or misplaced it, contact Rachel Wynn at rwynn@highmeadows.org. 

*As a reminder, please select a headshot (not full body) for the yearbook by November 14.

Did you know…while diving into the archives, we found the first reference to the Fall Festival in a 1976 school newsletter. Thank you once again to all of our fall festival volunteers and participants! Our goal each year is to build and strengthen our community. However, this year thanks to the amazing turn out and bake sale/sweet stroll…we had some funds remaining and were able to purchase 15 folding tables, 6 trash cans, and 3 recycling bins that are to be used for community events. 

Join us for a community trip to the Museum of the Cherokee Indian in North Carolina on January 14. Cost and travel details are included in this information packet. Sign ups for this family-friendly trip ends on November 10. Direct any questions to Danielle Wright at dwright@highmeadows.org. Let's engage in learning as a community!
