The final auction results are in, and it's something we can be proud of. We raised a record
$254,000 from our auction events. A few highlights:
- More than 340 people turned out to support our school
- Our amazing teachers brought in over $4,700 in tips for the school in an hour
- During Fund-a-Need paddles were raised almost 200 times to bring in $56,000 towards funding our PTA Programs for another year

This is a wonderful testament to the strong community we have here at Miraloma. It truly is a wonderful school.
