Pledge for the Annual Fund:
The
Annual Fund Campaign is vital to the success of operating The Highlands
School. All of the funds raised go directly to support the annual
operating budget. Specifically, contributions fund financial aid and
scholarships, academic programs, faculty enrichment and athletics. As
tuition does not cover the full cost of educating our students, we must
rely on the support of our families and friends to close the gap. Our
expectation is that each family contributes at least $1,000 and we achieve
100% participation. Our community is the foundation of our existence.
Be part of it and participate.
Contribute today and together we will
attain our goal of $275,000!
