Thank you for making our first Annual Gala such a wonderful success!
On behalf of Mrs. Wilson and the Gala Committee, we extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed to our inaugural event! We could not have done it without you!
We are deeply grateful to our generous sponsors and donors, as well as our dedicated faculty and staff and school families. Very special thanks to The Archdiocese of Las Vegas, Bishop Gorman High School, The Holdsambeck Family, The Matthews Family, McKinlay Excavation, The Raiders, DiBella Flowers, Mariana's Supermarkets, The Photo Guys, and At Your Service Catering!
A special note of appreciation goes to our Gala committee (pictured below). Your hard work, careful planning and steadfast commitment to our mission made this event such a remarkable success and a truly memorable evening for one and all! We are currently finalizing the numbers and look forward to sharing how much was raised. Once again, thank you for your support and for making this such a wonderful evening!
Please take a moment to enjoy the photos from our amazing event!

· Commitment, hard work, patience, endurance;
· Being able to bear difficulties calmly and without complaint;
· Trying again and again! Remember, you can do it!
