Welcome!

We are the parent organization that supports the Fine Arts programs at Highland High School in Riverside, Iowa.

What do we do?

  • Connect volunteers with opportunities to help out
  • Fundraising. A lot of fundraising. 🙂
  • We pay for Fine Arts expenses above and beyond what the district provides, which transforms a regular school program into an Excellent School Program!
    • Enrollment fees and costs for competitions and camps
    • Cleaning marching band uniforms
    • Senior banners
    • Theatrical production costs
    • etc.
  • We also help a separate organization fundraise for class trips, which happen every other year. (2025-2026 Disney World!)
