Community support for education raises the bar for student success at Snohomish Education Foundation Annual Auction, raising over $306,000!
“Snohomish, you never cease to amaze! At a time when we thought attendance would be low, you turned out to show your support for Snohomish students. Attendance at the Foundation Auction was near record levels, with 330 of you affirming your commitment to students, staff, and families in the Snohomish School District.” said Robin Stefanson, SEF Auction Chair.

The Snohomish Education Foundation fundraising event was recently held at the Tulalip Orca Ballroom. This fun and festive event benefited student programs in the Snohomish School District. Students from the Snohomish High School Symphonic Choir, led by Nancy Erickson, kicked off the evening on an upbeat note. Snohomish School District Superintendent Kent Kultgen gave an inspiring message about the importance of great teachers, and was followed by a powerful message from longtime Cathcart Elementary teacher, Megan Sloan, a recipient of many SEF Classroom Grants.
“Your enthusiastic presence and generosity resulted in $306,589. Never before has the fall auction generated so much. As a result, the Foundation can award more classroom grants to more innovative teachers. We can help more graduating seniors with after-high school education financial needs, and we can continue to augment district funds with greater contributions to district educational programs,” said Stefanson.
Included in this year’s fundraising totals was over $102,000 raised specifically for classroom grants that will be distributed to teachers and staff in K-12 classrooms throughout the Snohomish School District.
“The Foundation board thanks you; I thank you, and students, staff and families in the district thank you for helping ensure quality education is available for every student in our district,” said Stefanson.
