As we head into the long holiday weekend, we feel gratitude for our great Bigelow community! We cannot wait for our kids to enjoy more terrific grade-level events and activities, and to see caregivers, family, and friends at our upcoming dance and PTO events in the new year. Whether you’re giving time or donations or both, the Bigelow Middle School Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) is made up of all of us. And, ultimately, it’s about our kids and their education. As parents and guardians of Bigelow students, we are all members of the PTO, an organization that is well worth supporting.

Why give to the PTO?

• We underwrite programs that the Newton Public School’s budget does not cover, such as Creative Arts and Sciences and classroom technology.
• We offer field trip scholarships.
• We provide assistance to Bigelow families who have experienced unfortunate circumstances.
• We serve as an important communication channel between the school and parents.
• We help build the community that makes Bigelow a special place for our children.

Gifts to Bigelow PTO to support these important programs can be made via Venmo (@BigelowPTONewton), online, or by check (payable to Bigelow PTO).
