Organized annually by the Parent Teacher Association (PTA), Cardinal Auction Night celebrates our school's achievements, and raises funds for the upcoming academic year. We warmly invite you to join us for an evening filled with excitement, camaraderie, and philanthropy to benefit the Cardinal community.

This year's auction is not just a fundraising event; it's a unique opportunity for our community to come together and reflect on our history and shared successes. This year, we are hoping to raise $25,000, and we cannot do it without your support. From enhancing classroom experiences to fostering innovative learning opportunities, your generosity will directly impact the lives of our students and teachers. Please join us as we honor our past, embrace our present, and pave the way for a bright future in the current school building we proudly call home.

**CHILDCARE**
The PTA has arranged for free babysitting so that parents and guardians can gather and enjoy a night out in support of the kids, without the kids! Free childcare will be offered at school from 6:00-9:30 p.m. on May 3rd for current J.O. Wilson students only. Space is limited to 25 students.

Pizza and snacks will be provided.

To reserve auction night childcare, please go to https://tinyurl.com/JOCAN24Childcare and complete the registration form no later than Wednesday, May 1st.
