💛 HP Community is on the 2026 HPHS Charity Drive Ballot!

Parents, please encourage your teens to vote for HP Community as the beneficiary of this year’s HPHS Charity Drive. Many HPHS students may have started their own learning journey with us, and this is their chance to help give other children the same strong start.

If selected, every dollar raised will go 100% to our Scholarship Fund, helping children from families who could not otherwise afford preschool attend a safe, nurturing, and high-quality early learning program.

High-quality preschool changes lives, and the benefits ripple through generations. Children who attend preschool are more likely to succeed academically, with higher test scores, graduation rates, and college enrollment. Families gain stability, and parents can work knowing their children are safe and thriving. Communities grow stronger, with lower crime rates, less need for public assistance, and healthier long-term outcomes.

Supporting HP Community helps children build confidence, develop a love of learning, and reach their full potential. It provides families with stability and strengthens our community, giving every child the opportunity to thrive regardless of their family’s financial circumstances.

🗳️ Vote for HP Community and help invest in the next generation!

🚓 Exclusive Behind-the-Scenes Adventure! 🚓

A huge thank you to the Highland Park Police Department for donating two private tours of the police department, one for our Fall Fest raffle and one for our silent auction.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for a child to see the police department up close, explore how it all works, and have an unforgettable experience. All while supporting HP Community’s Scholarship Fund. 💙

Get ready to bid and make an incredible memory at Fall Fest.
