Events

Fundraising is the cornerstone of independent school financing. It is our school’s way of working to contain tuition increases while providing the best possible program for our students.

Through strong parental involvement, we are able to provide one of the most reasonable tuition programs for a private school education in the Bay Area.

Each year, Presentation School’s Development Office and School Administration ask our community to support our school in a variety of ways. We hope each family will consider its capacity to support Presentation’s fundraising over the course of their years and apportion that support among the opportunities available. While this is a brief overview, there are many opportunities during the year to learn about each of these activities.

Art and Wine Auction – October 6, 2007
Chairperson: Lisa Cavalli
This fall dinner and auction event highlights great art and wine lots. Lisa will appreciate your help procuring auction items for this kick-off fundraiser of the year.

Holiday Home Tour and Luncheon – December 14, 2007
Chairperson: Elaine St. Jean
Our annual holiday home tour features a tour of beautiful Sonoma residences, followed by a luncheon at the Sebastiani Winery. Silent auction and a holiday boutique round out the day’s activities.

Therese encourages your assistance before the day and at the event. We need to provide a luxury experience for our guests, from the moment they arrive and check-in to their departure after a day of touring homes, shopping in our boutique and enjoying a gourmet luncheon.

Day at the Opera
This is an opportunity for children and adults to enjoy the finest afternoon of music. The event helps support our on-going performing arts and applied arts programs for our students.

Presentation Golf Tournament – May 5, 2008
Chairs: David Grieve
This event, held this year at the Sonoma Golf Club, is a major source of income for our operational budget. The golf tournament includes a dinner and auction – last year raising over $25,000 through 100 golfers.

Each year there are additional fundraising opportunities. Families make special gifts in honor of a loved one, a Presentation graduate, a family member celebrating a special occasion. These gifts go directly to our scholarship fund. The school community also participates in eScrip, which channels a percentage of funds spent at retail stores directly back to Presentation.

Occasionally, we have other special funding opportunities that are announced more broadly to the school’s community. In addition, the school parents of each grade sponsor activities to help build community spirit and school wide energy.
