Please join us for the screening of Screenagers NEXT CHAPTER: Uncovering Skills for Stress Resilience, the follow up documentary to the award winning Screenagers : Growing up in the Digital Age. The film examines the science behind teen’s emotional challenges, the interplay of social media, and most importantly, what can be done in our schools and homes to help them build crucial skills to navigate stress, anxiety, and depression in our digital age.
The new documentary will be shown at Warner Avenue Elementary in the Mitchell Auditorium on March 4, 2020 at 7pm. Tickets are $20 per person, kids are welcome at the discretion of parents.
Please get your tickets before they sell out, as this event is open to the community.
The Gala + Auction is Warner’s biggest fundraiser of the year, and we can’t make it impactful without your help. Our goal is to have over 400 auction items lined up and secured in a wide variety of categories: travel, health and beauty, kids items/toys, jewelry, restaurants dining and wine, sporting events, and unique experiences. We’re asking every family to donate at least one meaningful item to the auction. Our slogan is “1 item, 1 family”.This could be anything from a gift certificate to your favorite workout class, your OWN business, a restaurant, your favorite hotel, a kids’ camp, a salon, etc. etc. All you have to do is bring a solicitation form with you when you visit your favorite businesses, and ask if they would kindly make a donation of a gift card, certificate or product to your child’s school.
Your class’ gala rep will be tracking your items that have been secured on a shared google doc which is being viewed by the Gala team!
All donations (along with completed donation forms) can be turned into the Spring Auction Mailbox in the main school office. Items can also be sent directly from the business to the school: Warner Ave. School, Attn: Spring Gala + Auction, 615 Holmby Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90024
