The 2009 “Celebrate the Modern Renaissance” dinner/auction was a huge success thanks to the amazing support of our sponsors, teachers and staff, and our proud Tierra Bonita Families!

The night’s activities featured a Live Auction with many high quality items including the opportunity to bid on your favorite teacher! The Silent auction was a huge success with many items available. Our sponsors, school staff, committee members and all of the generous families really came through and pulled together a tremendous showing of items for the auctions.

The dinner provided by the top notch chefs at Rancho Bernardo Inn along with the festive sounds from the live band "Funky Pox" were instrumental in making sure that everyone had a fun time throughout the evening.

"A heartfelt thanks goes out to all our volunteers, committee members, staff and participants of our 6th Annual STARs event.  It is inspirational to see our community come together and truly “Raise the Bar” on education at Tierra Bonita during these difficult economic times.  The dollars raised will be put to good use this year to create our new science lab and support academic programs that could not otherwise operate without this financial investment." Joseph Erpelding, Principal Tierra Bonita Elementary School.

“This has been a particularly challenging year for fundraising and it is a pleasure to work with such a dedicated and creative group of individuals as those on the 2009 STARs Committee. Creating a memorable day for our sponsors, teachers and guests is important to sustaining this event for the years to come and we are grateful to all those involved in helping the committee to achieve its goals of enhancing the Science, Technology, Arts and Reading in Education programs at Tierra Bonita Elementary School, after all, our children deserve it!” said Belinda Spragg, co-chair STARs committee.
