ABOUT THE AUCTION
The annual Poe Auction is the largest fundraiser of the year, consisting of a live auction event and an online silent auction. The live event is an adult-only social with exclusive opportunities, such as Principal for the Day and VIP Parking. Everyone can participate with all silent auction bids online. To help reach our annual fundraising goal we are asking for your support! The money raised from our auction funds educational programs, field trips, career week, technology upgrades and preservation of our historic school building. The current financial struggles of HISD have made our fundraising goals more important than ever for our local students.
