Dear Friends of Sunset Hills Elementary,

We are thrilled to announce the 26th Annual Sunset Hills Auction & 50th Anniversary Celebration, taking place on March 21, 2025! This milestone marks 50 years of education and community impact, and we need your support to make it a success. With over 400 Seagull families and friends, our goal is to raise $40,000—with a stretch goal of $50,000!

You can help by donating goods, services, or experiences to our auction and/or becoming an event sponsor. Your generosity will be recognized before and during the event, with sponsorship benefits such as: ✔ Live event recognition ✔ School banner placement ✔ Year-round e-newsletter exposure

Funds raised will directly support the 2025-2026 school year, ensuring our students have access to programs not covered by state or district funding, including: ✔ IMPACT, STEM, Art, and Music Teachers ✔ STEM & Art Supplies ("Lightbulb Lab") ✔ Teaching Software ✔ PTA Programs (Running Club, Science Fair, Talent Show)
