NHE ANNUAL GALA & AUCTION
The 2024 auction was held on March 2 at Northwood Country Club
HOW DOES THE MONEY RAISED AT OUR AUCTION SUPPORT NORTHWOOD HILLS ELEMENTARY?

- Teaching Garden aka Freddie's Farm
- Think Tank STEM learning lab
- Student field trips to destinations including the Perot Museum, Dallas Arboretum, Dallas Zoo & State Capitol in Austin.
- Stipends for classroom teachers and staff to purchase additional teaching enhancements
- Extra books and reading materials for the Library

- Pride rallies celebrating the end of each grading period
- Falcon Field Day...and many other special programs.
The PTA Ways and Means Committee is currently planning for the 2025 Auction and are accepting donations for our silent and live auction. If you are interested in supporting our event with a donation or sponsorship, please contact our Fundraising Committee at fundraising@nhepta.org.
