Hope this keeps you informed!
Auction News: The “School of Rock” Auction was held on February 6, 2010. Thanks to all of the parents who dressed up as Rockstars. Everyone had fun! We netted $93,000 for the school. This year’s funds will allow us to purchase new history and Spanish books, purchase software for our computer lab, put in automatic blinds in the school gym to darken for performances and assemblies, re-carpet the remaining classrooms, allocate money to each teacher for educational field trips, purchase more library books and accelerated reader tests for the library, and provide tuition assistance to our families in need. Thanks for attending the auction, donating to the auction, volunteering with setup, clean up or at the night of the auction or buying or selling raffle tickets.
