These are difficult economic times for schools, yet a good education is as important as it ever was to our students’ future. This year, more than ever, our schools need our financial support.

Buy your ticket to our annual wine tasting and auction today and help us raise our goal of $40,000 to help our students “reach for the stars.” The money raised at this year’s event will:

  • Fund grade-level and school-wide assemblies that inspire and inform
  • Provide scholarships for student leaders to hone their skills at seminars and conferences
  • Continue the book-buying legacy that the Foundation championed last year.

Join us for a lovely afternoon on November 8, 2009 … and help us make these things a reality!

Tickets: $60 per person

Order your tickets via PayPal, or download our invitation and return it to the address indicated.

Willow Glen High celebrates third annual Career Day

From The Willow Glen Times
