THE GALA IS HERE!! For those of you lucky enough to have tickets, get your dancing shoes ready and check out the auction items that will be up for bidding!
Not going to the Gala this year? You can still bid on auction items or donate to the teacher's table or GAP Fund. Does your middle schooler want a week without homework for Mr. Gerecke's class? Would your kindergartner flip over a Superhero party with 3 friends? What about the Dad's Club Liquor Basket or front row seats to the Christmas Program or graduation ceremony? Not to mention naming rights to the scoreboard or hallways or cafeteria or Makerspace...there really is something for everyone! So go to the Gala website and start your bidding now!
If you have any auction items you haven't brought in, now is the time - bring them to the office this week! Wine bottles, restaurant gift cards, event tickets - we can use them all! We do ask that items have a value of $25 or greater.
Finally, we could still use a few more volunteers for the St. Pat's Gala on February 29th:
Who Doesn't Like Ice Cream?

Gala Raffle Ticket Competition
The goal is for 100% class participation, and so far the leaders are PreK4 at 35% and 4th grade at 31%. None of the middle school grades have more than 8% participation, so there's lots of room for improvement - come on, kids, bring in those tickets!
Who will win the coveted $200 Visa gift card for selling the most tickets? So far, 4th grader Leela Ford is in the lead with 80 tickets sold, but will she be overtaken in the final days?
Want to win $250 off next year's registration fee? This one's easy - any student who turns in any Gala raffle tickets is entered in this raffle!
And don't forget that every student who sells their 20 ticket allotment receives a Free Dress Pass.
All tickets must be turned in to the office by NOON on this Friday. Don't miss out on all these exciting incentives - turn in those raffle tickets NOW!

WHAT'S BRUIN
Chess Club
Chess Club is one of our new extracurricular activities this year, and members have had a great deal of fun while learning chess rules and strategies. The fall session culminated in the recent Chess Tournament, won by Aiden Urbina. Judging from the smiles, trophies, and cookies, though, Chess Club appears to have been a rousing success for all participants!
The spring session of Chess Club will be starting up on February 26th, with meetings on Wednesdays from 3:15 - 4:15 PM. See the brochure at the side for details and how to sign up.
