Every year, the Chugach Educational Corporation hosts a lively auction to support Chugach Optional Elementary School.
The auction funds schoolwide upgrades for everything from furniture to technology as well as expanded learning opportunities for students through Outdoor School, Science Share, Mini Courses, and more. Please join us for a fun parent night out in support of Chugach Optional!
Fasten your seatbelts, grab your auction paddles, and get ready for a wild ride! ✈️🐆🐔
Expect an evening packed with great auction items, lively bidding, delicious food, drinks, laughs, and plenty of surprises. Whether you're here to strut like a chicken, sprint like a cheetah, or soar straight into the auction action, there's something for everyone. Bring your friends, bring your bidding game, and come ready to have a ridiculously good time, all while supporting Chugach, our students, and the awesome educators who make our school so special.
