STOR Silent Auction

The Student Technical Organization made up of SkillsUSA, Business Professionals of America (BPA), and VEX Robotics (VRC) will be holding a silent auction of baskets made up of various donated items during Parent Teacher Conferences on October 2nd and 3rd.
The purpose of the auction is to raise money for STOR students to attend local and national competitions in their various organizations.  The costs associated with travel to these competitions can be expensive for students and families so we would like to help raise money to defray these costs.
All baskets will be on display at Parent Teacher Conferences on October 2nd and 3rd from 4 PM to 8 PM.  If you are unable to attend Parent Teacher Conferences and wish to see a basket, we will also be at the school on October 3rd from 8 AM to 4 PM.
We have set up bidding for the baskets in an online silent auction at this link:
https://www.32auctions.com/MTCHSBaskets

If you wish to bid on any item, you must create an account. The auction will run from Sunday, October 1st, starting at 4 PM and go until Sunday, October 8th at 8PM.
If you win an item, we will keep the item in our office for you to pick up any time after October 11th.  You may pay with cash, check, or credit in the office or follow the payment instructions in the auction item on 32auctions to pay online.  We cannot ship auction items.
Please contact any of the STOR club advisors with questions at the following email addresses:
Thanks so much for your donations and your bids!

Parent Teacher Conferences

Open conferences will be held after school today, October 2 and tomorrow, October 3.

This is a great opportunity to get to know the teachers your kids hang out with every day, and the teachers are looking forward to meeting with you!  Parents, please bring your student along with you; this is time for open communication.  Come prepared to ask questions, address concerns, or simply say hello!

See you at the Conference!
