    GLOW hesapeae a cadem nnual uction ala Illuminate their world Invest in an innovative education for our exceptional learners. 23rd Annual Auction & Gala Saturday, February 23rd, 2019 The Westin Virginia Beach Town Center cba-va.org/auction MISSION The mission of Chesapeake Bay Academy is to educate students through academic programs individualized to address their learning differences, empowering them with the skills and confidence necessary for success in higher education, careers and life. “There are two kinds of light - the glow that illuminates, and the glare that obscures.” - James Thurber Dear CBA Friends and Family, Welcome to the Chesapeake Bay Academy Auction and Gala. This annual celebration of the CBA community is always a joy to be- hold as we honor our wonderful children and their families, the great work of our dedicated faculty and staff, and the unwavering commitment of our board of trustees. Tonight, we will bask in the warm “glow” of service to our students and the Hampton Roads Community. The importance of this event to CBA’s continued growth cannot be understated. Each year the proceeds of the auction provide much needed funds to support new programs and initiatives, expanding curricular as well as after-school offerings for our students; the funds facilitate a range of professional development opportunities for faculty and staff to enhance their skills and expertise; And, the event provides scholarship funds that are vital to our ability to serve many students who would oth- erwise be unable to afford this life-changing educational opportunity. Recently there has been much in the news regarding the lack of opportunities in the public sector for students with special learning needs.
