The volleyball game against Columbia tomorrow is cancelled. We are looking to make up at a later date

Parents and staff, Freezing rain is a difficult forecast to predict, and canceling school on a forecast is not ideal. However, the forecast and the timing of potential freezing rain means Highland CUSD No. 5 will not be in session tomorrow, Monday, January 22. Thank you.
