Team 7 Black students spent the day reading and discussing their quarter 1 book picks with their IRP novel groups.
The cross country teams held their annual Highland Invitational Thursday, September 28th with a total of "31" teams competing at Highland High School. The HMS invite is one the biggest held around the state and provides local teams with some high quality competition before the state Regional and Sectional meets that occur the first week of October.
