- Highpoint Academy is dedicated to providing excellence in education for each student.
- Our teachers are committed to achieving this excellence by enhancing our children's natural interest in learning through exploration, motivation, manipulation and application.

- When a child succeeds, there is a personal recognition that reinforces that "winning" feeling.

- Spanish is a required subject in the Elementary and Middle School grades.
- We enable our students to become fully bilingual and to learn about their heritage through numerous activities and events.
