Hello Parents, I hope your family is safe and healthy! We want to give your child the best education possible, and our teachers need your help. Due to the pandemic and tighter budgets, we need to raise funds for the essential tools our teachers need to help our students succeed. In light of current events, student and staff safety has become our most important issue. That’s why we are partnering with a company that specializes in safe, no-contact fundraising. They have helped schools like ours raise more than $150 million dollars. This safe and easy fundraiser is 100% online so there is no face-to-face selling, collecting money, or delivering products. Participation only takes 12 minutes, and your child will win fun and exciting prizes. Every student will receive a valuable Wild Republic Hugger or earbuds, just for participating. More prizes will be rewarded when goals are reached. Please help now. It really will make a difference. Go to https://www.schoolstore.net/sid.t?178063 to show our valued teachers your support.

Now that we’ve completed our virtual work, we can focus on returning student belongings as well as students returning materials that belong to Highland. Here is what we are thinking: ● Parents may come anytime between the hours of 9:00 am and 5:00 pm on Monday, May 18th or Tuesday, May 19th. ● Parents will pull into the Highland parking lot and follow the “parent pick up” route. ● Please have your dash tag ready (If you do not have a dash tag, you can find directions at the bottom of this document on how to create one). ● A Highland staff member will be stationed on the north side of the building waiting to read your dash tag - someone inside will gather all of your child(ren)’s belongings (including a yearbook, if they ordered one, and spring pictures) and place them in a holding area. ● As you continue pulling forward, there will be TWO locations to pick up: ○ The first location (cafe) will be for grades K and 1. ■ If you do not have a child in these grade levels, continue moving forward ○ The second location (gym) will be for grades 2-5. ■ If you do not have a child in these grade levels, continue moving forward ● A Highland staff member will be stationed at each location and will deliver the materials to your car. ● Somewhere along the route, there will be a staff member collecting supplies that belong to Highland - please have those ready as you proceed through the line. (Ex. Library books, text books, instruments, etc., Moana scripts for grades 4 and 5) ● As you move forward to exit the parking lot, depending on traffic, we will have another Highland staff member directing traffic. If there is a time where we are backed up, we may need to ask you to turn right out of Highland’s parking lot. We apologize in advance for this. We are just hoping to make this as seamless as possible. In order to follow social distancing guidelines, we ask that you remain in your car at all times. We look forward to seeing each of you on Monday or Tuesday! Dash Tag: ● On a full sheet of paper, PRINT the following (using black marker) ○ EACH Child’s first and last name ○ Grade level ○ Homeroom Teacher You should also be receiving an email (in the near future) from your child’s current teacher letting you know who your child will have next year as their teacher. Thank you - and have a wonderful week! Mr. Brown and Ms. York |
