Happy November, everyone! As the leaves fall and the air cools, our PTO is turning up the warmth with lots of gratitude, excitement, and activities to wrap up the year strong!
Spooktacular Fun with the PTO at USO/BAMC Trunk or Treat!
A huge THANK YOU to all the families and students who stopped by our PTO trunk at the USO/BAMC Trunk or Treat! We loved seeing all the amazing costumes, big smiles, and spooky school spirit. You made it a frightfully fun night!
Our PTO crew had a blast handing out treats, meeting new families, and sharing a little bit of that Cougar pride. Events like these remind us how special our community is — full of energy, laughter, and connection. We’re so grateful for everyone who took the time to come out, say hello, and make the evening such a success.
Until next time… stay sweet, stay spirited, and have a spooktacular fall season! 🍁

🎃Pumpkin Chunkin' Volunteers We’re looking for volunteers to help support our students during this year’s Pumpkin Chunkin’ event! Come lend a hand and cheer on our students as they launch their pumpkins and have some fall-themed fun.
We’re putting together a delicious Apple Nacho Bar to treat our amazing teachers before the well-deserved Thanksgiving break, and we’d love your help! 🍎 If you’d like to donate items or contribute to the spread, we’d be so grateful for your support.
Want to join the fun? 🎉 To volunteer with our students, you’ll need to complete a background check, which usually takes about 1–2 weeks to process. If you think you might chaperone a field trip or help out at future events, go ahead and get it done early so you don’t miss out on all the excitement!
📣Cougar Crew in Action: What the PTO’s Been Up To!
It’s been a busy (and fun!) fall for our PTO! From supporting colorful House Lunches and a fun-filled Pre-K Pizza Night to lending a hand with the Student Council Elections — we’ve loved every minute of connecting with our amazing school community.
We also kept our teachers fueled during conference week with snack bags and sweet treats to show our appreciation for all they do. It’s been such a joy bringing smiles to students, families, and staff alike!
And we’re not slowing down — even more exciting events and surprises are on the way. Stay tuned, Cougars! 💛🐾
Thank you so much for supporting the PTO through your membership and volunteerism.
It makes a HUGE difference in how we are able to support your students and their teachers. We couldn't do any of this without YOU, so thank you!
