Tickets cost $100 and wine, beer and hors d’oeuvres will be served. A silent auction will be held, offering items donated by parents and local merchants.
“This is more than just a fun night that brings the school community together. It’s an important event that will raise money to help keep our technology up to date, which is key to providing our students with the education they need,” said Ellen Mauser, the event co-chair, a Bronx resident and mother of an eighth-grade student at the school.
The gala is organized and run by the school’s Parent Executive Committee. Mauser’s event co-chair is Heidi Coppola, who lives in Yonkers.
