— from Arthur de Haan for Orcas Montessori School —
We would like to thank the Orcas community for supporting the Orcas Montessori School year after year. On Apr. 29, we held our annual Spring Auction, an “Under the Sea Celebration” at Random Howse. This is our most important fundraiser of the year.
Your generosity makes it possible for Orcas Montessori to underwrite student scholarships each year, keep its tuition affordable, and offer this successful Montessori creative learning community to the young children of Orcas.
We want to extend our gratitude to all the attendees of the Auction and the many Orcas and off-island businesses, OMS parents, individuals, and organizations who generously donated time, support, auction items, and services to make the event such a success. With your help, we raised over $20,000. So many contributed that we cannot list everyone.
On behalf of the all the children attending the Orcas Montessori School, thank you.
