Thanks to the support and enthusiasm of so many parents, teachers, staff, and students The Denim & Diamonds Gala was a fun, wonderful evening full of camaraderie, laughter and dancing.We raised about $80,000 – an incredible amount for our small community. Based on parent and teacher surveys these projects took top priority in the eyes of the stakeholders: Shade Cover for playground , Larger sandbox , Signs for entrance of buildings Table/bench/umbrella for side of playground , Equipment for workroom (die cut letters) Donations to each teacher for supplies in fall and spring Donation to tennis courts installation.
