Hi-Mount Extracurriculars
Hi-Mount is dedicated to the development of well-rounded students, encouraging learners to excel academically, socially and emotionally. At Hi-Mount, extracurricular activities are considered an essential part of the core curriculum and all students are encouraged to find an activity that helps them build upon their natural talents and interests. Students who participate in these activities strengthen bonds with their peers and learn to respect the abilities and goals of others as they strive to achieve common goals.
After-School Athletics
 Cheerleading: The Hi-Mount Cheerleaders support the Basketball team during their games. Cheerleading is offered to students in grades 4-8 and practices are held after school. The cheerleaders also perform at various school programs.
