This year's auction theme is "Gaining STEAM" which will support an expanded curriculum and supplies for the newly established STEAM lab, made possible by your support from last year's auction! STEAM education has empowered our SJV teachers to employ project-based learning that crosses each of the five disciplines. This fosters an inclusive learning environment in which all students are able to engage and contribute.

Here are some specific ways that the STEAM lab has already benefited our students:

• Provided our students with access to state-of-the-art equipment and materials.
• Allowed our students to collaborate on projects and learn from each other.
• It has created a space where students can feel safe to take risks and explore their creativity.
• It has helped students develop the critical thinking and problem-solving skills they need to succeed in college and beyond.

We hope you will join us for the 2023 SJV Auction and help us to "Gain STEAM" for our students!

We are grateful for your support of the 2023 SJV Auction. Your donation will help us to create a STEAM lab that will inspire and empower our students for years to come.
