Blanca Soler and Soler Productions Dear Duniway parents and friends, Thank you for coming to the 14th annual Duniway Foundation Auction! Your presence and participation this evening are essential to sustaining our school’s enrichment programs. Duniway is an amazing school, due in large part to committed individuals who are focused on providing our children with the best education possible. Your presence tonight speaks to that commitment. Despite ever-dwindling school funding, Duniway continues to attract the majority of families in the neighborhood and earns the highest rating possible from the State of Oregon each year! Why? Because of people like you who are willing to go the extra mile with your time, energy, and finances to keep our programs and staffing at a level that is best for our kids. Duniway parents like you volunteer countless hours in the classroom, teach the parent-led art program, organize school community events, and lead numerous fundraising efforts throughout the year. Because of your active involvement, our students enjoy full-time P.E., are able to sing in the choir and play in the fifth-grade band, and have weekly access to the library. On behalf of the Duniway staff and Duniway Foundation members, thank you for being here tonight. Your contributions this evening will directly benefit our students and make a tremendous difference in their educational experience at Duniway. Thank you again for coming, and enjoy the evening! In appreciation, Dr. Sara Hahn Beth Brownhill & Michele Delaney Principal Co-Presidents Duniway Elementary School Duniway School Foundation 4 1 Auction Volunteers Classroom Art Project Volunteers We have tried our best to list all of the people who devoted their time and Grade Teacher Project Volunteers efforts toward the auction.
