PTSA VP Ting Li provided the music.

The event could not have been a success without the leadership of Vice Principals Kelly Balzer and Deborah Coney at the event. Our amazing student social chair Elizabeth Lindquist and event chair Sarah O'Brien oversaw the event.  A big thank you to our high school volunteers Tara Leijen, Darrien Liang, Elaine Zhao, & Wei Zhang.  We would like to acknowledge our adult volunteers who helped with a variety of tasks that made the evening flow smoothly.  Thanks to Arti Davalbhakta, Lesley Tay-Chung, Sandy Zhang, Soo Shin, Sudha Bharti, Chiquita Stacy, Sheila Vijayan, Kelly Wong, Sarah Robinson, & Lydia Chen.
