New Year, New Format!
Quick note on our newsletter format: It's 2017 and we continue to work on improving communications at Miraloma. One quick change we've made is to reduce the redundancy of having both the summary links and newsletter items listed.
If you have thoughts on this change or anything to do with our school communications, please fill out our survey and share your feedback!

| FUNDRAISING: Host a Sign-Up for Auction 2017! |
 What is a Sign-Up? It is a party/event hosted by Miraloma families as a donation to the auction. At the auction, people sign up for parties by bidding on a slot.
Last year these
"Sign-Ups" brought in over $100,000 at our auction - about a third of our total earnings! We hope we'll get as many fun Sign-Ups as possible for our upcoming auction on March 4, 2017!
What kind of Party/Events can you host? Whatever you like! Adult-only, kids-only, or family events. In the past, we've had Italian, Indian, Peruvian, Caribbean, and Brazilian food-fests, beer and wine tastings, Dutch and South American cocktail parties, and game nights for the adults. For kids, there have been science, Lego, duct-tape, bowling, sleepover parties, and a lot more. Contact us for more information/ideas.
