We are thrilled to invite you to our upcoming gala, “The Silver Screen Soiree: A Night in Black and White.” Break out your glitz and glam and your finest attire and prepare for an evening of celebration, community, and cinematic style.

🔬 Lighting the Way for our Future Scientists

This year, our celebration carries a special mission. Proceeds from the Silver Screen Soiree will bring us to the finish line of our new Smart Lab! Your attendance and generosity will help provide our students with the cutting-edge technology, robotics, and hands-on resources they need to explore the wonders of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math. Let’s build the future together, one discovery at a time!
