Classroom “Theme Basket” Auction

The Family Fun Night and Silent Auction this year will feature Themed Baskets filled with contributions from students and families of Englewood. The money raised will help pay for PTC funded events and supplies; Field trips, classroom enrichment, technology, after school family nights, art, and other supplies not allocated by the district.

The auction will take place at the Family Fun Night, Friday, May 1st.         

The baskets need items in all price ranges – it’s up to you what you can and want to donate. Gift cards are always a good idea! You don’t necessarily have to buy something – a recipe or perhaps “recycled items” for art supplies work too. You could also partner with other parents to purchase a larger item. Talk to your child’s teacher if you’re interested in helping to purchase the basket (or theme-related container) for your grade’s basket. Or maybe ask a local business to donate something that fits. Be creative! 

Donations are due to your child’s class by Friday, April 24th. We can’t wait to see all the great things you and your kids come up with!
