Event Details & Auction FAQ's

  • I pay tuition. Why do we need to fundraise?

    What you give matters! Did you know that tuition only funds about 90% of the school’s operational budget each year? The 10% difference is sourced through our various fundraising efforts throughout the year. This includes our Titan Ticket program, and most importantly, our annual Auction which brings in over 75% of our revenue! All proceeds from these programs directly align with funds needed to minimize tuition increases, underwrite school improvements and operate enrichment programs such as Resource, Art, Music, Spanish, and Technology.

  • What do I wear / do I have to wear a costume?

    Our Auction theme lends itself to creative dress as your favorite SNL characters this year! However, if you are more comfortable attending in "cocktail casual", you will be in good company.

    Of course! There is a spot on the registration page to note who you would like to sit with, which we will do our very best to honor. You can also make generic requests such as “Kinder families.”
