Consider a position with a nationally recognized school district. Highland Park schools have been recognized by the U.S. Department of Education and have been awarded Exemplary status by the state of Texas every year. If, indeed, schools are a reflection of the community they serve, the residents of the Park Cities have appreciated the importance of quality education since the first campus opened in 1914. Their high expectations for and support of the public schools have created an educational environment second to none.

Geographically the district is a six-square mile residential community completely surrounded by the city of Dallas. HPISD serves about 6,200 students from the city of University Park and the town of Highland Park, which comprise the Park Cities.

Downtown Dallas is only minutes away. Park Cities residents enjoy many of the cultural, recreational, and entertainment advantages of the Dallas/Fort Worth area known as the Metroplex. The area is home of some of the finest museums in the Southwest, a growing number of national corporations, universities, and professional sports teams.

Highland Park ISD is the perfect setting for the teaching profession and one where excellence in education is the expectation. Teachers can expect strong parental and community support, and HP parents are very active in the PTAs, Dads' Clubs, HP Sports Club, and other organizations.

If you really want to teach in an environment where students really want to learn, Highland Park ISD is the right place for you.
