                                                           Thank You for a Successful 2023 Auction!

It was great to see some of you at Paddy's on Thursday to mark the end of the auction. Thanks to everyone's support and participation the online auction raised about $8,000 for the Burr PTO!! Those funds will go to support classroom supplies, Creative Arts & Sciences programming, playground improvements, and more. 

Item Delivery:
  • Please be sure to pay your invoices asap.
  • You will hear from an auction committee member soon about how to get your item(s). For some of the physical items, we will have a table in front of Burr on Monday morning, be sure to watch your email for information.
