Every donation counts.

Creative Arts & Sciences (CAS) programs are 100% funded by PTO dollars. Each school funds their own programs. Bigelow tries to fund at least one CAS program per grade. March will be a big month for CAS at Bigelow! A theater group that encourages critical thinking and student civic engagement performed for our 8th graders this week and coming up, there’s also a local author, Greek mythology, and a visit from Holocaust survivor Elly Gotz.

Are you looking for the Bigelow PTO Family Directory?
The success of the system is dependent on every family logging in and updating their information. Throughout the school year, families can edit their name, address, and phone numbers, and each family can decide which pieces of information will be available for others to view through the privacy settings.
Our secure and easy-to-use directory is free for all Bigelow families and is hosted online at Membership Toolkit. The directory is maintained by PTO volunteers and funded by the PTO thanks to your support!
If you are unfamiliar with the platform, if you have forgotten your directory access login, or if you are unsure about whether or not you are in it, please email us with your name and your child’s name(s) at bigelowbulldog@gmail.com.

UPCOMING EVENTS
Does your child like Creative Arts & Sciences (CAS) Programming? Do they enjoy School Dances and Field Trips?
These are examples of events funded by our PTO.
Our goal is to raise $12,000 to support Bigelow events throughout the year. Thanks to our Bigelow community, we’ve doubled our donations and are getting closer to our goal. We are more than halfway there!
Every donation counts.
Please consider donating $10, $20, $45, $75, $110, or more!
Creative Arts & Sciences (CAS) programs are 100% funded by PTO dollars. Each school funds their own programs. Bigelow tries to fund at least one CAS program per grade. In December, 7th Graders learned from Dr. Dan Perlman, Professor of Biology and Environmental Studies at Brandeis University, about the history of climate change and the future implications on water availability, wildfires, and flooding; greenhouse gasses and the greenhouse effect – and more. March will be a big month for CAS at Bigelow! Upcoming presentations include a local author, a theater group that encourages critical thinking and student civic engagement, Greek mythology, and Holocaust survivor, Elly Gotz.
Field Trips: Busses are expensive! PTO support helps keep field trip costs, banquets and community activities low- or no-cost for families and sponsors students who may be unable to pay at all.
School Dances: Our PTO sponsors upfront costs of all Bigelow school dances, which are only partly offset by ticket sales. This year’s October dance was a blast –– we’re looking forward to another dance in the Spring!
Teacher Appreciation & Classroom Support: You all participate in the BIG Teacher Appreciation Week each May, but Bigelow teachers also enjoy snack, dessert, or breakfast spreads sponsored by our PTO once each quarter. If teachers need extra supplies for their classroom, the library or gym, our PTO can reimburse them. When teachers feel appreciated, our children benefit the most!
Back to School Bash & Community Events: Our PTO welcomes the Bigelow community each September at the Back to School Bash with music, games, food and fun! PTO-sponsored events throughout the year include Global Diversity Night, FORJ Picnic, and PTO Coffees.
Registration Fees: Our PTO supports registration fees for students to participate in regional Math Competitions, Music and Drama events.
