Dear Bigelow Families,

We hope this note finds you well, and we are excited to welcome you and your student(s) to the 2020/2021 year at Bigelow Middle School!

There is no doubt that this is going to be a unique and challenging year. Like you, we are anxiously awaiting further detailed information regarding the Back to Learning plan. There is still much uncertainty, which makes planning PTO events and programs difficult. As a result, we’ve had to make the difficult decision to put many important and fun events on hold for now, including the 6th Grade Potluck Dinner, Ten Tables and the Fall Car Wash. These social events build our community and serve a critical fundraising role, and we are concerned about the impact this will have on our Bigelow family.

As the PTO, “we are dedicated to provide support and information to the parent community.” We will continue to share updates regarding PTO events as well as information regarding the school and the district. And we are working hard exploring other ways to support social events and fundraisers that can be held safely. Stay tuned.

We were truly gratified by the support and generosity you showed the PTO last Spring and through the end of the year. We are fortunate to be part of such a wonderful community and we look forward to serving you in the coming year.

If you have questions for the PTO, please contact us at bigelowbulldog@gmail.com.

Sincerely,

Karen Markson and the Bigelow PTO Board
