The South Whidbey Schools Foundation annual gala raises funds for classroom grants to help ignite a love of learning and enhance the educational process.

The South Whidbey High School Show Chorus under the direction of Paula Ludtke will entertain the crowd during the social hour while attendees enjoy appetizers, drinks and view tables of silent auction items donated by local businesses.

Dinner will be served as attendees hear from board president Shelly Ackerman and our keynote speaker, South Whidbey High School art teacher Val Heggenes.  Val will share her experience receiving multiple grants from the foundation to innovate and enrich hands-on learning experiences for students.

After dinner, South Whidbey Middle and High School English teacher Justin Silva will emcee a lively auction.
