Join Us for the PTA Auction!

The annual PTA auction is just 3 weeks away on Saturday, February 25, and we hope you’re as excited as we are. Not only is this event a lot of fun, it’s a great way for the Deal community to support our school.

If you haven’t bought your tickets yet, what are you waiting for? All you have to do is visit dealpta.maestroweb.com to buy your tickets.

While you’re on the website, look at all of the amazing items up for bid–including the use of BET’s Executive Suite at the Verizon Center for a Wizards game, a suite for 12 for the sold-out Coldplay concert at the Verizon Center, and a VIP Package for this year’s 8th Grade Promotion Ceremony.

Alternatively, the auction team is making it even easier to get your tickets. They’ll be in the main hallway at Deal during Parent-Teacher Conferences on February 6. Bring your credit card or checkbook and sign up. Everyone who buys auction tickets on the 6th will be entered into a drawing for two burgers and two shakes from ZBurger.

BIKES FOR THE WORLD Collection: Saturday, June 11

The ELL Department is sponsoring its annual BIKES FOR THE WORLD bicycle collection on Saturday, June 11 from 10 am – 1 pm. This year our bicycles will go to the Philippines to support a school project that provides transportation to low-income students who are at risk of dropping out and who currently walk miles to and from school each day.

If you would like to support this project, please volunteer on Saturday or donate that tax-deductible used bicycle and $10 to help defray the shipping costs. Sewing machines, usable bike parts, accessories and tools are also gratefully accepted.

For more information please see or call Mr Winn-Ritzenberg at (202) 365-2926, 363-6769 or see Ms. Wang.
