The content highlights is not a module. It is specific functionality bound to the template.
You can move the entire block in your template however since the template is designed in zones.
Open you index.php file located in /templates/matchbox/index.php and locate the following block.
<!-- Highlights -->
<?php if(isset($highlights->entries) && $isFrontpage): ?>
<?php // Count the grid items and assign the proper class
if ( count($highlights->entries)==3 || count($highlights->entries)==6 ) {
$highlightBlock=' large-block-grid-3';
} elseif (count($highlights->entries)==2) {
$highlightBlock=' medium-block-grid-2 large-block-grid-2';
} else {
$highlightBlock=' medium-block-grid-2 large-block-grid-4';
}
?>
<section class="column small-12 content-zone highlights">
<?php if($this->params->get('contentHighlightsHeader')): ?>
<h3 class="moduleTitle"><?php echo $this->params->get('contentHighlightsHeader'); ?></h3>
<?php endif; ?>
<ul class="small-block-grid-1<?php echo $highlightBlock; ?>">
<?php foreach($highlights->entries as $key => $highlight): ?>
<li>
<?php if($highlight->icon): ?>
<div class="text-center highlight-icon">
<?php echo $highlight->icon; ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if($highlight->title): ?>
<h3>
<?php if($highlight->link): ?>
<a href="<?php echo $highlight->link; ?>"><?php echo $highlight->title; ?></a>
<?php else: ?>
<?php echo $highlight->title; ?>
<?php endif; ?>
</h3>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if($highlight->tagline): ?>
<h4><?php echo $highlight->tagline; ?></h4>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if($highlight->description): ?>
<p class="text-center"><?php echo $highlight->description; ?></p>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php if($highlight->link): ?>
<a href="<?php echo $highlight->link; ?>">Learn more...</a>
<?php endif; ?>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
</section>
<?php endif; ?>
