WAIVER DAY - COMING SOON!
Waiver Day is a special event where all clubs and classes at Heights sell different food items during lunch to raise money for their organization.
 
For the Freshmen Class of 2029, this marks the start of our fundraising journey!  All proceeds will go toward our Bulldogs' senior year activities - including our Senior Picnic, Senior Sunrise, and more.
 
We’d love your support! You can volunteer by sending us an email (2029@heightspto.org) to sign up - just make sure are VIPS approved.
 
Our next Waiver Days are tentatively scheduled for:  December TBD, January 16, and February 27.
 
At our last Waiver Day, we sold tamales, and we plan to sell them again!  To make this possible, we are asking for your help.  Any contribution - big or small - will go toward the cost of ingredients and supplies, allowing us to maximize our profits for future senior year events.
 
Thank you for supporting the Class of 2029 and helping us build lasting Bulldog traditions!
