Join us Tuesday, September 24 at 6 PM in the BGMS Library for our first PTO meeting of the year! We'll be voting in new officers, including President, VP, Meeting Chairperson, and Historian (event photos and social media). These roles are essential to keeping our PTO strong. We also need committees for each grade level to assist with fundraising efforts. Our bylaws limit the President and VP to two terms to encourage new ideas and prevent burnout. Your participation makes a difference—see you there! #BGMSCougars

PTO is putting on the COLOR RUN! Most students have received their Color Run forms. Extras are in the library. The due date for money to be turned in is 9/25, and FINAL day will be 9/27. Event is 10/13, rain or shine. ALL MONEY goes to your student's Class. Even if your child does not want to participate, this is a VERY important fundraiser. DON'T FORGET, each class (2029, 2030, 2031) will be responsible for raising money for any end of the year parties and trips. The COLOR RUN will kick off the start to more class fundraising for each class and get the ball rolling with money! Registration is available online, http://shop.schoolathon.org/198535
