Attention 8th Grade Families! We hope you saw Principal Green’s announcement that Newton North High School Principal Dr. Henry Turner will visit Bigelow to present to parents and caregivers of Bigelow 8th graders in the auditorium on Thursday, January 16 at 8:15 AM. ***Please note date change***
We hope you can join us TOMORROW for an Ice Skating Fundraiser at Warrior Ice Arena on Friday, January 10, 2025 from 9-9:50 pm. Tickets are $18 (includes skate rental) and will be sold at the event starting at 8:30 pm.
We are restarting an old Bigelow tradition of the Ten Tables progressive dinner on Saturday, April 5th!
Ten Tables is a progressive mystery dinner and fundraiser. Everyone first gathers together for an opening appetizers party at the home of a Bigelow family. There you receive your dinner destination. After appetizers, everyone splits up into smaller groups for dinner hosted at a number of other families’ homes.
This promises to be a wonderful night of community-building, and a great way to raise money to support our PTO. If you are interested in hosting either the appetizers gathering or one of the dinners, please send an email to the PTO at bigelowbulldog@gmail.com or contact Kathy Shields at kburdetteshields@yahoo.com.
Mark your calendars for the Bigelow Global Diversity Night to celebrate our school’s diversity through delicious foods and diverse displays. Save the date for Tuesday, March 4th in the gym from 6:30-8:00pm.
We are recruiting volunteers from all countries to host a table. If your family would like to be part of this year’s celebration, please email Lanni, lanni_harris@yahoo.com, and we will include you as we plan for the event.
This is our first year to host this event, so we are looking forward to starting a new school tradition with food, interactive demonstrations, displays of textiles, art, music, musical instruments or whatever makes the night meaningful to you, our community!
