Story

Highline High School is a high school in Burien, Washington, United States, located about 3.5 highway miles from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport.

Today those cities all have their own area high schools, but at the time Highline was the only high school in the area.The name Highline, for which the school was named, derives from the original name for Des Moines Memorial Drive, which was called the "High Line Road" for its location along the ridge between Puget Sound and the Miller Creek Valley. Today the name represents the geographic area for Burien, Sea-Tac, Des Moines and White Center.Adjacent to the school is the Highline Performing Arts Center, which is used by the local community organizations, schools, and dance competition companies.SportsHighline's sports teams were a longtime member of the Seamount League, but now competes in the Sound Division of the South Puget Sound League(2A) as of the 2016-17 school year.ActivitiesCheerleadingDrill TeamFall sportsCross Country: Coached by Rex PostFootball: Coached by Mark CrossSoccer (Girls): Coached by Eduardo MillànSwimming (Girls): Coached by Rachel LoyVolleyball: Coached by Colleen ModdeGolf: Coached by Shane StenesenTennis (Boys) : Coached by Scott Babcock
