The PTA is planning our annual Highlandpalooza fundraiser on Saturday, May 16, 2026, and we are seeking prizes and donations for the silent auction, which is critical to the event’s success. 

Highlandpalooza is the PTA’s annual family fun fest and it’s our largest fundraiser of the year! The PTA hosts events such as Trunk-or-Treat, Hot Chocolate Family Fun Run, the Winter Wonderland Dance, and more! The PTA also funds memory books for 5th graders, Highland t-shirts for our Kindergarten students, and several teacher appreciation events throughout the year. The more money we raise, the more we can do for the students, teachers and families of Highland!

In conjunction with Highlandpalooza, the PTA runs a silent auction, where families can bid on items to win, with all proceeds going to the Highland PTA. The silent auction is run online, and will open a few days before Highlandpalooza, culminating with a final chance to bid throughout the day of Highlandpalooza on May 17th. 

We seek donations of items for the auction such as gift certificates, gift baskets, services (spa, handyman, etc.), new household items, event tickets, etc. Do you have a service to offer? Do you own a business, or know someone who does, and can offer a gift certificate? Did you receive a household gift that you never opened and won’t be using? Think about donating to our silent auction! If you, or someone you know, would like to donate to the silent auction please reach out to highlandpalooza68@gmail.com before

May 1, 2026.

Join us at Culver's on May 13 from 5 to 8 p.m. for Restaurant Night!

20% of sales are donated to the Highland PTA.

Be sure to show this flyer or mention the fundraiser when you order at the Skokie location only!
