Administration

Mrs. Banach began as the proud Highland principal in 2021 and was recognized as the Wallingford Public Schools Administrator of the Year in her first year at Highland. A social worker by training, Mrs. Banach started in Wallingford Public Schools in 2012 as a school social worker, before making the move into school administration nine years later. She focuses her work on ensuring academic progress and achievement for all students, social emotional development of young learners, and fostering a positive culture and climate at Highland where all stakeholders feel they matter. When not working, Mrs. Banach loves running, spending time and traveling with her family and the warm weather! She looks forward to welcoming your family into the Highland family and has no doubt you will love it!
