Nestled in 12.5 wooded acres in Bellevue, The Little School provides a natural setting to nurture children’s curiosity and potential. We build upon the inherent strengths of each child and support them as they expand their intellect, build foundational skills and deepen social and emotional connections.

Throughout the year, the TLS community unites in fundraising - creating possibility for the people, program, and place that make The Little School such a vibrant and welcoming community. The auction is our largest annual fundraiser and social event. Proceeds support our commitments to authentic learning, stewardship and sustainability, and access and inclusion. The 2022 auction raised over $290,000, with more than $178,000 dedicated to financial aid.

This school year, TLS has invested over $775,000 in tuition assistance. As our commitment to access and belonging grows, so do our funding needs. Donations and sponsorships from businesses provide the foundation for event success, allowing more of the dollars raised to benefit our school and students.

Picture This, The Little School Auction and Celebration will take place on Saturday, April 22, 2023 at the W Bellevue. We anticipate 250 in-person guests, with additional households bidding online, and an extended advertising reach through our media platforms. Acknowledgement of your thoughtful contribution will be included in our online catalog.
