Fiske Families,

The auction is around the corner!  Thank you to co-chairs Carolyn Price and Jill Hegsted and their amazing volunteers for organizing this Fisketastic event!  See below for more information

 

AUCTION UPDATES

Reminder that the online Fiske silent auction opens this Sunday at 9:00am (bidding site: https://fiskeauction2022.ggo.bid)!

Registration for the Silent Auction is free and can be done on the online bidding site above – note that if you have already purchased tickets to the event on May 6th, there is no need to register separately for the silent auction.  You can also visit the above site now to start previewing auction items!  Winning bidders will pick up their items at the May 6th event or at a later date if they cannot attend. Friends and family outside of Fiske are also encouraged to participate in the Silent Auction.  Remember that 100% of the proceeds from the silent auction go to the Fiske PTO and fund programs such as creative arts, teacher grants, METCO, etc. 

There is still time to buy tickets for the live event on May 6th!

It is our first chance in several years to come together for some adult-only socializing and fun! There are so many families that are new to the Fiske community and we look forward to celebrating that together! Ticket purchase includes an evening out at Wellesley Country Club featuring dinner, a live auction and dancing (bar is a cash bar).  Visit https://thefiske.ejoinme.org/2022registrationtickets to purchase tickets and see the “FAQ” page on the website or more information on activities, dress code, etc.  Anyone who would like to attend the event and may need financial assistance in doing so should reach out to Michelle DeSantis (desantism@wellesleyps.org).

2022 FISKE S.T.E.A.M. FAIR!

Sunday, May 15, 2022

3:00-4:30 pm

Fiske Elementary School

 

Be part of this Fisketastic event and explore the many ways that everything we do combines Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math!  Start thinking about your projects and how you could challenge yourself to discover two or more S.T.E.A.M. letters in your project! Then sign up to share your exhibit with the Fiske community!

 

Thanks to our wonderful science teachers, we will be talking about S.T.E.A.M. at school in the coming weeks. 

Get ready to explore your own activities and find some new research ideas!
