More than 200 teachers, parents and friends of the school gathered at Si View Community Center, raising funds to enhance classrooms’ technology capabilities and support enrichment programs with a focus on art.

“It was a great community-building evening for old friends and new friends,” said PTSA member Geoff Doy.

“We owe a huge thank you to our sponsors, our celebrity guests, our donors, all the people who attended and supported the event, and to all the super parent volunteers who worked so hard to make it all come together,” he said.
