Higher Ground is a drama television series created by Michael Braverman and Matthew Hastings. The series follows a group of troubled and abused high school students at a therapeutic boarding school in the Pacific Northwest as they navigate adolescence in the aftermath of their home troubles.
Higher Ground first premiered in the United States on the Fox Family network on January 14, 2000. Although praised for its themes and performances (particularly Christensen's) and well-rated, the series was cancelled after its first season due to the sale of its broadcast network the following year. The show was part of a production company that did not make it to the new network.
