Principal for a Day
Have people bid to have their daughter or son be principal for a day. Of course ask your principal if they are OK with the idea first! The child will get to follow the principal on their rounds and maybe even get to call some of the shots. What child would not like that? Often the principal will host a special lunch - anything from pizza to sitting inthe staff room can be a treat.
Don't Forget the Pizza Certificate
While we all want to win the exclusive vacation, not everyone can afford the grand prize. Make sure and provide opportunities for those on a tighter budget to participate as well; they are also part of your community and often contribute by volunteering etc. Make your event inclusive by having a number of donations under $20. Every pizza parlor would love to get their name out there by supplying a couple certificates for a free pizza. And who doesn't like pizza? Pearl Bids supports multiple winners on the same bid sheet, so there is no need to crowd the table with duplicate bid sheets.
Your Very Own Parking Space
Do you have a separate parking lot for staff & teachers? See if there is an extra space available. Auction off a parking space for the year. You can even purchase a sign saying "Reserved for the Smith family." (Or check with your local sign maker as they might like to donate a sign.) Your parents will love the idea of not having to wait in a line to drop off and pick up their children.
This item is not only popular for parents but also a great to include in a high school silent auction. For the ultimate teen gift, a parent can purchase a parking space for their teen-driver for the year. If your school permits, see if the teen can “personally decorate” their parking space. Nothing says happiness for a teenager like being a VIP!
Have more than one space available? Pearl Bids allows you to generate bid sheets which allow for multiple winners - either for a set-predetermined bid price or where the highest multiple bidders win.
