Your PTO Welcomes You to the 2025-26 School Year!

Dear Bigelow Families,

We hope you’ve had a fun and relaxing summer break. We are excited to welcome you and your student(s) to the 2025-26 school year at Bigelow Middle School!

As parents or guardians of students at Bigelow, you are all members of the PTO. The PTO acts as a liaison between parents and the school, helps to build community and foster communication, and fundraises for the priorities set by Bigelow.

The Bigelow PTO is a volunteer organization and your participation enriches the school environment. We welcome all to learn more about the PTO and to get involved. In particular, we are looking for:

  • a Co-Treasurer to help with Banking tasks
  • a Vice President to serve on the PTO board and to help recruit other volunteers
  • organizers and helpers for social and fundraising events
  • a few volunteers for the Back to School Bash (Wednesday, 9/10 from 4p–6p) to help with pizza sales and cleanup (sign up for a time slot HERE)

We are fortunate to be part of such a wonderful community and we look forward to serving you in the coming year. We wish you and your students an outstanding year!

Sincerely,

The Bigelow PTO Board – Margaret Battat Silva, Rachanne Nelson, and Lanni Isenberg
