🫶🏻 Teacher Gratitude: Give through Raise Right!

We're delighted to again offer the Raise Right (formerly Scrip) gift program as an option to show appreciation to our wonderful Highlands teachers and staff. This program puts gift cards in the pocket of every teacher and staff member at Highlands.

The teachers and staff appreciate the freedom to choose gift cards from their favorite retailers and parents appreciate the simplicity of this gift of gratitude. As an added benefit, Raise Right provides a small rebate back to Highlands PTA as a result of your donation!

📌 HOW: Simply designate the dollar amount to the teachers/staff of your choice below. You can also donate to "All Highlands Teachers & Staff" - an important way to thank all the dedicated teachers and staff that help your child every day.

  • Deadline for donations is Thursday, May 8th.

Thank you so much for your support!
