UNPLUGGED WEEK
All events are free to students, thanks to the Giving Campaign and the efforts of our amazing Highland PTO. We have worked with fantastic community partners to put together new and exciting areas each and every day of the week, with a fun family celebration at the end (a movie night at the Highland Elementary gym with pizza)!
To make this week run smoothly, with the highest level of fun and the lowest level of stress, please fill out the form below to ensure we are prepared for each and every day.
Note that parents or guardians must be present with children to participate; any unaccompanied student (who has not had special arrangements made through PTO) will be turned away. Parental/guardian supervision is imperative to the safety and efficiency of Unplugged Week. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding of these rules.
We also ask for a few volunteers daily to help set up and clean up (this will happen before kids get out of school and right after the event ends). Unplugged can only happen with your help, so please consider signing up to volunteer using the form included below.
Kids Inc. participants must contact their program leader directly to ask how they will participate in the week's daily activities. We have invited all Kids Inc. students to participate with their leaders and are working to hear back on how they will incorporate this into their schedules. If you take your student out of Kids Inc. to participate separately, you must be present during the activities.
