Dear Parents,
We cannot thank you enough for your incredible generosity and support of this year's 23rd Annual Gala - Come to Play. Win for the Kids. The excitement in the air was undeniable as we enjoyed a night filled with fun, from the lively auctions to the DJ, dancing, and the unforgettable casino experience. Everyone looked absolutely stunning in their vintage Vegas attire, with all the glitz and glam adding to the magic of the evening.

I am looking forward to our Annual SJB Gala tomorrow night! However, if you cannot join us in person, rest assured that you can still participate in the Online Silent Auction.
This event presents a fantastic opportunity for our entire community — parents, grandparents, teachers, parishioners, and local residents — to come together to actively support our school's financial needs through an array of exciting auction items. The most cherished items have always been the Teacher Experiences, which promise to add an extra layer of excitement to the evening. The funds raised during this year's Gala will be directed toward important school initiatives, including outdoor facility enhancements, technology updates, and essential classroom resources for our dedicated teachers.

As we prepare for one of the most significant events of the year—the Annual Bosco Gala—we wanted to remind you of the important role this and our other major fundraisers play in supporting our school community. At St. John Bosco Catholic School, our fundraising efforts are concentrated on three major events: the Bosco Gala, Running with Rosco, and Birdies Fore Bosco/End of Year Bosco Bash. These events are not only essential to funding our school's initiatives but they also play a vital role in fostering a strong sense of community.
