This year an online auction component has been added so you can begin viewing items and bidding today.  The items shown will join with our famous, beautiful class projects and home room theme baskets.  Check into the auction daily to see new items.  We have trips, orthodontics, teeth cleanings, services, sports tickets and much more.

And, as always, our "Barrow of Cheer" will be full of an assortment of adult beverages - snacks too!  The raffle for this great wheelbarrow filled with fun includes chances - 1 for $5, or 3 for $10.  Tickets are on sale now in the school office.
