Description

HIghlandpalooza is the Highland School PTA's annual fundraiser.  It is a carnival/fun fest that includes a silent auction.  It is our largest fundraiser of the year, and helps us host community events throught the year, as well as provide support and thank you for our amazing teachers and staff.  It also supports our cultural arts programs that we partner with the school on.  The PTA provides yearbooks for all graduating students as well. 

We raise most of our money through the silent auction.  We receive donations of good or certificates, and these are auctioned off. The more items we receive the more we can raise.  

Our school is in a moderate income area, with 50% of our students receiveing free or reduced lunch, so we have our share of fundraising challenges.  We are very grateful when we can find community or corporate partners to help support our school!
