Highland Park ISD will cancel classes for tomorrow, Friday, January 10, 2025 due to the poor road conditions in the Amarillo area. The district will resume classes on Monday. Stay safe and warm.
On January 4th Highland Park FFA held their Chapter show at the Ag Farm. We had 53 projects exhibited by 30 different FFA members. The purpose of the show is to prepare FFA showmen for upcoming county shows. Prizes were donated by community members in support of the kids.
