Rose is an outstanding student who consistently demonstrates a strong commitment to academic excellence. She approaches each lesson with focus, enthusiasm and a genuine desire to learn.

His confidence, enthusiasm, and determination create a positive learning environment and encourage his classmates to challenge themselves.

He consistently leads by example, demonstrating the importance of staying engaged, thinking critically, and approaching new concepts with an open mind.

Kyle Goines, Grade 11

Kyle has done a great job starting this school year. He is currently attending CVCC for his Fire/EMT certificate and then coming to Heights in the afternoon for his core classes. Kyle also decided to add more to his plate by joining the Boys Golf Team, and he has been a reliable team member all season long. He is a great addition to the team not because of his golf skills but because of the person that he is. He is respectful to his opponents and coaches, supportive of his teammates, and works hard to get better each day. 

Avery Miller, Grade 12

Avery is a very dedicated and ambitious student who balances her CHHS and CVCC workloads exquisitely well. Through her engagement in extracurricular activities like Model U.N., she has become worldly and aware of how her own life is both similar to and different from those of people around the world. Her communication skills are sharp and effective, as shown through her participation in Mock Trial. She stays focused in class even when others start to tune out, and her teachers can always depend on her to be on top of her responsibilities. Avery's maturity exceeds that of most of her peers, and she has solid plans to become a Navy dentist in the future. Beyond that, she has a wonderful personality and is great to be around.

Congratulations to all of our incredible students! We look forward to watching you reach new Heights!
