Thornhill Benefit Auction Announcement
Based on the latest guidance from OUSD, the PFC Executive Board and Auction Committee made the difficult decision to cancel this year's school auction. Our school relies heavily on this auction to fund many of the things that make Thornhill a wonderful place for our kids to learn. So, we are heartbroken to have to share this news, but it was made with the belief that the health and safety of all of our community is our paramount goal. Read more about this decision on Konstella.
There are still a few items on our online auction catalog including puzzles, books, and more. Check it out! Thanks for your understanding as we navigate the coming weeks. Visit the Auction page >> |
