We are so thrilled that Arcade's PTO is back! We appreciate our community coming together to make this happen! Please read this message from Lisa, a parent at Arcade:

Hello Arcade Parents!

My name is Lisa Pegos, and my son Roman is a 7th grader here at Arcade. I’m excited to announce that we’re relaunching the Arcade PTO (Parent Teacher Organization) in January 2025, and we would love for you to be a part of it!

Our goal is to bring parents and teachers together to support and enhance the wonderful events and activities that make our school so special. Whether you’re looking to get involved in planning, volunteering, or just helping to make a difference, your time and ideas are welcome!

We’ll be holding monthly meetings to discuss upcoming events, brainstorm new ideas, and find the best ways to support our school community. If you’re interested in learning more or have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to me at arcadepto@post.com.

Our first meeting is on Tuesday, January 14 at 7:00 P.M., and we’d love for you to join us. Please come to the main office and we will direct you to the room. It’s a great opportunity to connect with other parents, share your ideas, and help make this year a fantastic one for our kids.

I hope to see you there and look forward to working together to make a positive impact on our school and our children!

We are looking for chaperones! If you would like to volunteer, please fill out an interest form and sign up to be fingerprinted for FREE!

We need 15 additional parent chaperones by January 15th or we may need to cancel the trip!

Permission slips are due January 15th—no exceptions! The number of students determines the number of chaperones, so if we don’t get enough chaperones, we may still be able to go based on the true number of students attending the field trip.

Students who want to experience the Planetarium may need to sign up in advance of the field trip. Stay tuned for details!
