⭐ From Fundraiser to Fidgets: Liam’s Impact in Action

🎉 As we wrap up another amazing school year, we're excited to celebrate the success of our Autism Acceptance Month fundraiser and recognize one very special student!

⭐ Liam, our fundraising superstar, helped make this initiative a success. He even worked alongside Ms. Munson and Mr. Smith to help select the fidgets that would be purchased for our school. A total of $100 from the fundraiser was used to purchase these new sensory tools.

📦 When the fidgets arrived, our OT department unwrapped them and brought them to Liam's classroom for a special surprise.

📣 During morning announcements, Liam was recognized in front of the entire school for his hard work and dedication. Students then had the opportunity to explore and try out the new fidgets for a few minutes—a moment filled with excitement, curiosity, and lots of smiles!

💙 It was a wonderful way to celebrate the positive impact one student can have on an entire school community.

🗓️ Looking ahead, the PTA and OT Department will continue to work together during the next academic year to thoughtfully allocate the remaining fundraiser proceeds to support students and enhance school resources.

🤩 Thank you, Liam, for your leadership, generosity, and school spirit. Wishing everyone a wonderful summer and congratulations on a fantastic school year!

🎳 A fun day on the lanes for our fifth graders!

Our PE Department took students bowling to celebrate the end of elementary school and their upcoming move to middle school.

Here's hoping our Huskies strike it big as they roll into this exciting next chapter! 🎉

☀️🍿🎡 A Huge Thank You to Our Amazing Volunteers! 🎡🍿☀️

The PTA would like to extend our sincere thanks to all of the volunteers who helped cook, bag, and serve popcorn during Field Day yesterday and today. We know the temperatures were incredibly hot, and we truly appreciate everyone who dedicated their time and energy to make the event a success.

Field Day is a wonderful tradition organized by the Highland Central School District, and we are proud to volunteer at it each year. In addition to serving fresh popcorn, our volunteers also helped provide delicious fresh-spun cotton candy for students to enjoy throughout the festivities.

Your hard work, enthusiasm, and willingness to brave the heat helped create memorable experiences for our students. Thank you for making Field Day extra special!

💙 We couldn't do it without you! 💙
