THE SOUND OF MUSIC

The Sound of Music!

Maria, a novice nun in 1930s Austria, is sent by her convent to become a governess to the seven Von Trapp children. Their father, a widower, raises his children with the strict discipline of a military man. Maria initially meets with hostility from the children, but her kindness, accompanied by the sound of music, soon bring joy to the whole family—while the conflict of world events threatens to bring catastrophe to both the country and the Von Trapp family.

Our show is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of The Rodgers & Hammerstein Organization.

“A classical education is a pearl of great price and worthy of the highest efforts of our teachers and students because it aspires to give not only knowledge, but wisdom.”

Cheryl Lowe – HLS Founder     

OUR METHOD

CLASSICAL

In the tradition of Western civilization, education and classical education have always been synonymous. Classical education can be distinguished from modern education, in that it does not neglect the important first step of giving students the classical tools for both intellectual development and for understanding their classical, Christian heritage.

CHRISTIAN

Our faith statement is the Apostles’ Creed, the most ancient and widely accepted expression of the essential beliefs of the Christian faith. Highlands Latin teaches and upholds traditional Christian morality, and the Holy Scriptures as the divinely inspired word of God.

 

TRADITIONAL

In the traditional classroom, a knowledgeable, enthusiastic teacher carefully leads students into an understanding of each subject. The traditional classroom is consistent with human nature and the experience of many decades has demonstrated its superiority over the modern child-centered classroom.
