Faculty active in school life Extra-cu rricular activities are not confined to students. Highland High teachers are continually active in clubs, social functions and furthering their own education. Volleyball, badminton, and horseshoes were just some of the sports teachers enjoyed at the fall picnic on the farm of Mrs. Anne Mathew, phys- ical education teacher.
