We are looking for auction items for our online auction as well as the live auction. 
Restaurant gift cards, sporting tickets, activity vouchers, business donations, anything is much appreciated.

PTO Thanks you for taking the fundraising survey!
We received 88 responses to our fundraising survey, which is amazing.
Feedback will help the PTO shape future fundraising efforts.
Overwhelmingly, parents want to keep funding a teacher salary and para time.
Because of this feedback, it was unanimously approved at the
February board meeting for PTO to fund $70,451 towards
para time for the 2017-2018 school year.
