    In our gender separate environments on a co-ed campus, we follow the Integral Formation® educational philosophy of the Legionaries of Christ and Regnum Christi, which strives to develop the spiritual, intellectual, human, and apostolic dimensions of the whole person. Integral Formation® is a comprehensive method and practice of teaching for developing authentic Catholic leaders in schools worldwide. The Highlands School is a member of Regnum Christi Education, a global network of over 1,000 schools with 7 here in the United States. A Regnum Christi school is a Christ-centered educational community of excellence, focused on the integral formation of its students, offering an experience of joy that comes from encountering Christ and becoming apostles eager to exercise their Christian leadership with a spirit of mission, helping the Church build Christ’s Kingdom, impact culture and transform society. The Highlands has a staff of 10 full time religious men and women whose focus is the personalized character and spiritual development of each student. We have a clear and enthusiastic Catholic identity, yet lived in a way that families from other faiths feel at home. We incorporate the truth about who God is and how we should relate to Him and to each other into our daily lives at school. A student's mind is formed in the discovery of what is True. Your child will be encouraged to exercise each facet of his intellect through analysis, synthesis, relation, and expression. At The Highlands School, we educate students to have the mind of a leader: one who not only discovers Truth but can also communicate, convince and lead others to the truth.

  • RC Territorial Committee Protocol: Memo
    Thy Kingdom Come! SEMESTER FOLLOW-UP REPORT TO THE ANNUAL PROGRAM Territory: North America Semester: January – June 2017 Cycle 2017-18 Date: August 30, 2017 Compiled by: Fr. Michael Brisson, LC Reviewed by: RC Territorial Committee Protocol: Memo. NA-RC 54-2017 Classification: III.10.3 “[The Father] takes away every branch in me that does not bear fruit, and everyone that does he prunes so that it bears more fruit […] I am the vine, you are the branches. Whoever remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit, because without me you can do nothing.” – John 15:2,5 I. Analysis The territory continues on track to meet its 2020 Apostolic Goal to evangelize and engage a thousand new families into the mission of forming apostles, bringing Christ into their hearts, home, community and society. While membership numbers are down, the evangelizing work and apostolic commitment and enthusiasm in the localities is increasing. The reported number of adult Regnum Christi members declined this past semester from 3,267 to 3,147 members, however, total membership has increased 20% over the past three years. The decline this past semester reflects ongoing locality efforts to cleanse the database of inactive members. The territory had 104 new adult incorporations, an overall upward trend and comparable to last semester. The documented number of ECYD members declined from 2248 to 1959. This decline in membership is a reflection both of the limited resources dedicated to youth work and the informal process for maintaining youth membership data. Localities reported that 396 youth made the ECYD pledge this semester.
