The School Committee approved a donation from the Bigelow PTO to our auditorium! This donation – thanks to families’ contributions in the last few years and the advocacy from the PoPS and the PTO – will pay for auditorium improvements including new ceiling mounted stage lights and a light bar over the stage. These fixtures will illuminate performances on stage with new long-lasting LED bulbs that are color-changeable by remote computer. The total cost of these lights, including shipping and installation, is $21,201.

The Bigelow community is grateful to the NPS and the Operations Department for their ongoing upgrades to the school’s auditorium. These improvements have included, since January 2019, new house lights, new stage curtains, painting of walls and ceilings, a storage container for stage sets, and soon to be installed new carpet. See here and here.

We are hoping to see the carpet and the new lights at our upcoming spring musical, Twelfth Night, which will open on March 12.

Thank you again for all your support of our school and our children!
