I am honored to welcome you this evening to our annual auction as
we Spotlight Emerson School. Your presence here shines a bright
light on the enthusiastic support and partnerships that have been
integral to our school’s great success over its 41-year history.
Tonight is a celebration of our community, past, present, and future.
Thanks to your generosity, tonight will be a wonderful fundraiser, but
also an even grander “friend-raiser.” The relationships between our
parents and our teachers, between our students and their teachers,
and amongst our parent and alumni bodies are at the center of our
celebration and the core of our mission. We are all a part of Emerson
School, and it is this unique school community we celebrate tonight.
So, I thank you for coming to the party. We hope you will participate
in the Auction by bidding on silent auction and live auction items,
trying your luck in the raffles and the wine pull, and raising your
paddle for financial aid. But, most of all, we hope you will have a great
time tonight celebrating the success you have helped bring about and
the exciting future we will build together.
