On Thursday, September 17, the UPMC Ronald McDonald Care Mobile will be on-site at Highlands School District, parked near the Community Center, to provide no out-of-pocket-cost medical care to children from 9:00am-2:00pm. Families with questions should contact their child's school nurse. See flyer with more info here.

SCHOOL MENUS will always be available here. Although meals are free through our community eligibility, a la carte items and “seconds” must be purchased. SchoolCafe accounts are used to charge students for such purchases. SchoolCafe balances carry over from year to year for a la carte items. Click here to learn more or to create an account.

For any questions or dietary needs, contact: Stacey Waffensmith, Food Services Director, at swaffensmith@goldenrams.com or 724-226-2400, ext. 4180

In compliance with the federal McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act, as reauthorized in 2015 by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA), Highlands School District is attempting to identify all children within the district that may be experiencing homelessness. Children who are experiencing homelessness may qualify for assistance with free school lunch, school supplies/materials, tutoring and transportation so that they can remain in their school of origin throughout the duration of their homeless episode. Please read this letter for more information.
