Highland Elementary School

1301 Edge Hill Road

Welcome to Highland Elementary School. We are a dynamic learning community located approximately five miles north of Philadelphia in a suburban residential area. Our more than 400 students come from many socioeconomic levels and represent our diverse and culturally rich community.  Our new state-of-the-art building opened in 2005 replacing the former Highland Elementary that had been a mainstay of the Abington Community since 1924. 

With our commitment to addressing the unique needs of each child, and developing life-long learners, our school promotes the district motto, “Excellence is Our Standard.”  In the past ten years Highland Elementary has been recognized three times by the Pennsylvania Department of Education as a school of Outstanding Achievement.  Through the collaborative efforts of the Abington Administrative team, highly qualified teachers, support staff, parents, community and enthusiastic students, Highland has attained Adequate Yearly Progress for three consecutive years.
