In the northern hemisphere, Noon is half way between the dawn and the sunset. Therefore, noon marks the highest the Sun will rise during the day, no matter what the season is.

In the same place it always is. Don't forget that the planets revolve AROUND the sun. Of course, to us the Sun seems to move because the Earth rotates. The exact position of the Sun in the sky depends on where you are and the time of year. In simple terms: The Sun rises in the East and sets in the West. At midday the Sun is to the South, if you are in the Northern Hemisphere. It is to the North if you are in the Southern hemisphere.

Is the sun always the highest in the sky at midday?

It is highest in the sky at a particular longitude and time zone at noon. However time zones are one hour apart, so you could be off by a half hour if you are at the edge of a time zone. Also, because the day is not exactly 24 hours (we make up for this at leap year) it will not be exactly noon at any longitude but could be off by a minute or so.
