We are thankful for those who placed bids on fun auction items at the 2026 Tiger Gala like the "Slime Time" package! Because of your generosity, an entire classroom had a blast at a messy, gooey Slime Party hosted by the talented Valley High School FCCLA students. Seeing the community come together to support these hands-on experiences for our students is what it’s all about.

THANK YOU to our community for making the 2026 Tiger Gala a success. From the silent auction to the dance floor, your energy and support for the West Des Moines Community Schools was unforgettable.

Relive the night! Thank you to Molly Breedlove for capturing some highlights.

Together, we’re building a stronger future for our students. 🧡🖤

Cheers to all things Tigers!! I am definitely not a pro photographer, but was happy to help out in a pinch.
