Renaissance

The Renaissance program is a national incentive program sponsored by Jostens at Highland High School. We have joined Josten's in a campaign for ALL students to make the commitment to graduate.  The entire Highland staffulty believes our students all have the ability to succeed!  Students who become a Renaissance card holder will be eligible for discounts at school events, various privileges during the school day, semester trips, and quarterly celebrations.  Students can achieve different levels based on their academic achievement and school involvement.
