This Pride Month, we're highlighting students and staff who help create spaces where everyone feels seen, valued and supported. Across Highline that looks different from school to school.

A message from Superintendent Ivan Duran. "As we wrap up another school year, I hope you'll take a moment to reflect on the memories that will stay with your family long after summer begins." 

End-of-year elementary report cards are now available in ParentVUE. We encourage families to review their child’s standards-based progress in the Report Card section. During this transition, report cards will also remain in Documents. Contact your school for ParentVUE activation help.

This summer, Highline will begin moving student files from Google Drive to Microsoft OneDrive.This is part of Highline's move to Microsoft tools for students. Students will begin using more Microsoft tools in the fall. Most families do not need to take action right now

Highline is financially stable because of steady enrollment and difficult budget adjustments made in recent years. To maintain that stability, the proposed 2026–27 budget includes about $8 million in reductions, including central office reductions, while prioritizing resources that directly support students and classrooms.

Parkside Elementary students and staff spent the day at Waskowitz for a schoolwide field trip planned by Parkside teachers and school leaders. After six years, this end-of-year field trip is now a tradition that connects students to each other, to hands-on science in nature and to their own potential.

Highline is continuing to build schools where every student feels supported, included, and able to participate. This work is underway in all elementary schools and will expand to middle schools in 2026–27. We recently saw inclusion in action at Field Day at Mount Rainier High School, where students from Adapted PE classes and peers from across Highline came together for a day of movement, connection and celebration.
