Fiske Elementary School is holding its biennial auction, “A Night at the Races” on Friday, May 6, 2022.  The Derby inspired auction is one of Fiske’s major fundraising events and is used to fund many important programs and expenses over the next two years that are not covered by the school budget.  The funds raised at the auction this school year will be particularly impactful to the PTO and the students as we were not able to hold the auction last year due to the pandemic.
 
The money raised at the auction goes directly to the Fiske PTO to support programs such as METCO, which enables minority children to attend Wellesley Public Schools and English Language Learning (ELL) teaching non-English speaking students to develop a proficiency in English.  In addition to these programs, the auction proceeds enable curriculum enrichment programs, library books, classroom technology and supplies, playground equipment, guest speakers, and more!

Our event will kick off with a silent online auction May 1st-5th.  At the actual event, we will have a live auction that will include grade gifts, grade art projects, and additional experiential items.  There will be dancing, music, a horseshoe tournament, and more!  After many years of virtual events, we are excited to bring the community together for this event.
