On May 20, 2022, the Wyoming Valley Montessiri School held an annual gala benefit for the WVMS Scholarship Fund to celebrate more than 50 years at WVMS. After having to pause the celebration for two years due to the unfortunate circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic, WVMS decided to take a more casual approach for the 2022 event. Hors d’oeuvres, desserts, and an open bar kept bellies full and spirits high! Families and friends of Wyoming Valley Montessiri School students were invited to participate in a silent auction for themed gift baskets, gift cards, and much more. Parents were able to reunite and mingle in an upscale casual, comfortable setting.

Sundance Vacations donated a week vacation certificate to be contributed to the silent auction. We hope that whoever won enjoys a relaxing week on the green!
