The Silent Auction was a huge success!
If you attended the Silent Auction, you probably had a wonderful time. The planning committee, coordinated by Jennifer Davis and Mary Hall and consisting of Amy Duzan, Pearl Rodgers, Dede Lowe and Nancy Hall, did an outstanding job of organizing the event. Some parents have already given feedback and said they experienced a sense of community throughout the evening. Some have even suggested that we do something again that pulls everyone together for food, drink and fun. So, kudos to you, planning committee, you guys provided a very enjoyable evening!
A large part of the success is also due, in part, to you, the parents. There were so many items to bid on! If it weren’t for your willingness to find items to donate and then bid on, we would not have raised the money that we did. Our total proceeds were $3,344! Wow, kudos to you, CHMS parents!
Between now and our January meeting, we are compiling a list of ideas of things we would like to focus on purchasing for the school. So far some ideas are: First, sending teachers to training classes; Second, classroom supplies (lesson materials and the like); Third, maybe some additional things for the classrooms … plants, animals, curtains, rugs, etc. Please put some thought into it and send your ideas to myself or one of the other officers. You can find our contact information on the website, www.chmlr.org.
Again, thank you planning committee and other parents. We should all be proud and excited for the success of the auction and what we can do for the school with the proceeds.
We hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season.
