• Support a Cougar Holiday Drive is On - Help us spread joy this season! 🎁

• Help the Nurse’s Office with a Pants Donation!👖

• Give the Gift of School Spirit! Shop the spirit wear store for holiday gifting. 🎉 💚

Support a Cougar is a PTO-led program that helps OTE Cougars in need throughout the year, and our annual Holiday Drive is a special way to make the season brighter for families in our community. Through your generosity, we provide gifts and financial support during the holidays with donations of Target gift cards, new books, and games.

Here’s how you can help:

• Financial Contributions – Choose a donation level and submit your payment directly on our website.
  
• New Books and Games – Drop off your donations in the collection bins at OTE starting November 18th.
  

Donation deadline is December 6th. Thank you for helping us make the holidays a little brighter for our OTE families in need!

If you are an OTE family in need of support this holiday season, please reach out to the OTE Social Worker, Lacey Koester - lkoester@bluevalleyk12.org

The school nurse's office needs clean, gently used pants for both girls and boys! While they have plenty of shirts, the supply of pants is running critically low. Sizes most in demand are 5/6, 7/8, and 10. If you can help, please drop off your donations at the school. Thank you for supporting our students!

Looking for the perfect holiday gift for your student? Check out our school spirit wear! From cozy hoodies to stylish t-shirts, there’s something for everyone to show off their school pride. Spirit wear makes a thoughtful and practical gift your child can enjoy all year long. Don’t wait—order now to ensure delivery before the holidays!

Parents and staff are welcome to join the PTO Board at their monthly Board meetings. The PTO discusses upcoming events, budgetary spending and income, and connects with school administration. Meetings are held at 9:00 a.m. at OTE unless otherwise specified.

The December Board Meeting is a board-only offsite meeting. Regular monthly meetings will resume in January.
