The Highlands Stories Micro-museum is located within Highlands High School, and artifacts are displayed in glass front cases. These artifacts (and their stories) are also viewable on this website.  We are accepting additional artifacts that share stories from various eras of Highlands students. 

Some examples of objects that might be included in the display are on the home page of this website. While we hope the objects themselves will be interesting, the heart of the exhibit is in the additional description and information that accompanies each item: a “backstory” about the item, who donated it, where it came from, what it teaches us about Highlands. There also are some video clips and related photos or news clippings on the website. All this is available via the visitor’s smartphone, tablet or other device. 

Highlands Stories is really about the memories and bits of nostalgia that these backstories reveal. Each class and generation will have their own stories to add. Some items are historical, some personal, some glad and some sad, but each says something about Highlands High School. The School and its supporting organizations, such as the Fort Thomas Education Foundation and the Alumni Association, will ultimately determine how many submissions will be accepted, and will oversee their suitability and safety.
