News From Our Amazing PTA
News from the PTA
Thank you for your support of the Panther Prowl
Thanks to the generosity of our families and community, BAMS PTA raised $29,165 in our Panther Prowl fundraiser. BAMS PTA will use the money raised to help fund field trips, student experiences, a planner for each student, and more. We hope your students had a wonderful time at the walk on Thursday morning. Thank you to the parents and families who attended or volunteered.
PTA Meeting on October 28
Join BAMS PTA in the cafeteria on Monday October 28 at 6:30 pm for our next meeting. We will be recapping the Panther Prowl and making plans for future activities, including the Book Fair.
PTA Spirit Wear Delivery
If you ordered spirit wear from BAMS PTA, we expect to deliver your order to your student's homeroom in about 1-2 weeks. Look for an email from BAMS PTA with the exact date. Missed the sale? We will have shortsleeve t-shirts for sale at Family Night on Thursday evening.

Last Chance for Student Mobile Device Plans
This is just a friendly reminder that Thursday, October 31st, is the last day to purchase the Student Mobile Device Protection Plan for only $20. After October 31, the cost will go up to $50 for the same plan (until January 31, 2025). See the attached flyer for information and directions on how to purchase the Student Mobile Device Protection Plan. Please be sure to purchase a protection plan for your child’s Chromebook for this school year. (Last years’ protection plan ended at the end of last school year. Therefore, a new protection plan must be purchased for this school year to cover Chromebook damages.)
