Quality Education: A Community Commitment

Who We Are

At the heart of a strong community is a strong school system. The HIGHLAND EDUCATION FOUNDATION was formed in 2015 by a group of Highland, Indiana residents who saw a need and an opportunity to foster and facilitate excellence in teaching and to enhance the learning experience of the students.

What We Do

The Highland Education Foundation provides opportunities for donors to give back to their schools by funding teacher and classroom grants for creative and innovative classroom activities, projects and programs beyond what tax dollars can accommodate. These grants encourage, support and recognize creativity, achievement and excellence within the teachers and students. What better investment than helping this Foundation in the never-ending goal of moving education forward!

We had the amazing privilege to see one of our grant winners in person today. Southridge Elementary's "One School, One Book", was read and celebrated in school from February 24th through March 24th. The author of their book then came to their school for a fun author visit and he personally signed all 409 students books today! Thank you Allan Woodrow for coming to Highland and talking to our Southridge kids. We appreciate your kindness and are so glad we could grant a fun visit for our school children! 🎉 P.S --> We also got to see their awesome school LEGO Wall too! We love funding amazing things for all of our Highland students!! ... See MoreSee Less

Thank you so much HEF for such an amazing day! It was so awesome to see the students so excited about writing after Mr. Woodrow’s presentation.

What a joy! He spoke about discovering his joy of writing in 3rd grade and how he turned his passion into a career. I think a lot of Southridge kiddos will be inspired to follow their dreams!

What a fun day! Thank you HEF for helping give our students an opportunity of a lifetime!

This is so amazing!!!

Warren Elementary received a grant for their entire school to participate in one school, one book! They read the book as a school and answered questions about it. They also completed fun activities throughout the school. Penguins are everywhere. 😊🐧 All thanks to a grant from HEF! 🎉 ... See MoreSee Less
