What is Swing? 

The annual Swing event is Highland Catholic School’s biggest fundraiser, uniting current school families, legacy families, parishioners and friends to raise critical funds, directly benefiting our students and teachers. It’s a fun and wonderful celebration of community. 

Why it matters? 

Swing has raised more than $3,000,000 in the last 27 years. Proceeds from the various events, raffles and auctions support Highland Catholic School’s general operating budget, from stable tuition rates and access to specialists to technology upgrades and improvements in the facilities. 

Specifically, past events have funded: 

  • Our Literacy Lab, Enrichment Room, Library, Spanish Instruction, as well as our Music and Performing/Visual Arts offerings.
  • A 1:1 iPad program for all students in Grades K-8 (making remote learning possible during the pandemic), as well as additional devices for the Preschool classrooms. 
  • An Elementary Counselor to support the mental health of students in Grades K-6. 

Highland Catholic School is proud of the resources and extra programming that continue to be funded by Swing dollars, and we invite EVERYONE to join us in our efforts to not only meet our fundraising needs, but to further invest into the 2024-25 school year with the best tools and resources for supporting students, teachers, faculty, and staff. Would you like to know more about our sponsorship opportunities or donate to our auctions?

Swing History 

In 1999, a group of Highland Catholic School supporters launched a “School Carnival for Adults.” Their vision quickly became a reality and Swing has thrived for 20+ years. The SWING fundraiser is Highland Catholic’s biggest fundraiser that directly benefits 

students, teachers, and families. Proceeds support Highland Catholic School’s general operating budget. Funds support stable tuition rates, access to specialists, extra programming, technology upgrades and improvements in the facilities.

 

Thank you to all our sponsors, business supporters, parishioners, families and volunteers for making SWING – and the critical impact of this fundraiser – possible. We are grateful for our wonderful community!
