Hello,
PLEASE BRING ANY UNUSED SCHOOL UNIFORMS (non-logo shirts, pants, belts) TO THE PTA MEETING AND/OR BACK TO SCHOOL NIGHT.
THE PTA WILL EITHER USE THEM IN OUR SCHOOL'S UNIFORM CLOSET or GIVE THEM TO OTHER ANNAPOLIS CLUSTER ELEMENTARY or MIDDLE SCHOOLS THAT WILL USE THEM.
OUR UNIFORM CLOSET IS ESPECIALLY IN NEED OF BELTS and ADULT SIZE KHAKI PANTS.
1. There is a PTA Meeting tonight in the Bates Media Center (Library) at 6:30 pm. Come and join us and learn about all we do!! You will enjoy being a member of our group and getting to know the school better.
2. Back to School Night is this Thursday at 6:30 pm. Please meet in the cafeteria. Ask your child for his A Day Schedule for you to follow. If you have not joined the PTA, we will have a table with membership forms. We will also sell various Bates Middle School logo items that are fun for your family to own.
Finally, please consider taking a few minutes to sign up for the Safeway Escrip program, the Giant A+ School Rewards program and the Target School program. Safeway, Giant and Target give FREE money to schools. BUT, you must sign up each year! Please sign up for Bates Middle School.
