Highland School is a public school in Craigmont, Idaho ,[ 5] the only school in the Highland Joint School District #305. Located on the Camas Prairie in rural Lewis County in the north central part of the state, it is often referred to as "Highland-Craigmont" to distinguish it from the larger and later established Highland High School in Pocatello . The school colors are black and gold and the mascot is Harold the husky .
In addition to Craigmont, the school district draws from Reubens , Winchester , and Melrose.[ 7]
Consolidation

The former mascots were Craigmont Cougars, Winchester Loggers, and Reubens Demons.[ 6] The current campus was constructed ten years earlier, in 1952.[ 9]
