Gala

The gala is an important (and FUN!) biennial fundraising event for River Oaks Baptist School. Typically, between 600 and 800 people attend this event. The 2026 gala will take place on Friday, April 17, 2026, at The Post Oak Hotel. Cocktails will be served beginning at 6:30 p.m. with dinner and the program beginning at 7:30 p.m.

This festive and starry evening is open to the entire River Oaks Baptist School community and will feature a silent and live auction, tuition raffle, seated dinner, and entertainment. Proceeds go to support continued excellence at ROBS.

We are thrilled for you to join us! You have several options. First, you can reach out to your grade level Underwriting Chair to help connect you with other families. You can also reach out to your Class Parent or other families in your child’s class to see if they want to go in on a table together. Another option is to purchase individual tickets at a Preschool, Lower School, or Middle School table, and we will seat you at a table with other parents/ticket holders in your child’s grade or division!

One couple does not need to purchase the whole table. It is actually best for each couple to purchase its portion of the table separately in order for each couple to receive a tax benefit. When you purchase your spots, please be sure to indicate the names of the other people at your table in the space provided. Please note that for split tables, we must receive payment from ALL purchasers before a table will be assigned. Payment deadlines for the 2026 gala will be announced in the 2025-26 school year.

Table and ticket prices will be announced during the 2025-26 school year.

Absolutely! The silent auction will be online through One Cause. Bidding will open the week of the gala. We will send out a link to start bidding.
