PTO General Meeting + Fun Run Open Call
β¨ PTO GENERAL MEETING + FUN RUN OPEN CALL β¨
Join us Friday, November 7 at Baxter Village Hall (or virtually if you can’t make it in person)!
π€ 9:30-10:30 AM - PTO General Meeting
π 10:30-11:30 AM - Fun Run Open Call
We’ll cover fall highlights - Fun Run results, teacher luncheons, and Spirit Nights - and preview what’s ahead for winter and spring: the Holiday Shoppe, Winter Dance, and Teacher Appreciation Week.
Then, join us for our Fun Run Open Call! Over the years, parents have expressed interest in running the Fun Run ourselves to help the school save money. This session is an opportunity to see what that really looks like - the full scope of planning, logistics, prize management, and communication that go into organizing the Fun Run. We’ll explore moving forward with a full Booster package next year, as well as moving the event in-house given enough interest and volunteers. We want everyone to understand what’s involved so we can make the best decision for our school community together!
π All parents, guardians, and staff are welcome to join.
β Coffee and light refreshments provided.
π» Can’t attend in person? Join us live virtually and participate from home.
