Welcome back from the Alcott PTSA!

As summer comes to an end, we hope your family enjoyed a wonderful break filled with sunshine, adventures, and special memories. Now, the new school year is just around the corner, and with it comes a wave of anticipation, excitement, and maybe even a few butterflies in our kids’ tummies.

The PTSA is here for you every step of the way - supporting our school, guiding families with important information, and most importantly, enriching the school experience for all of our children. We are thrilled for the year ahead and can’t wait to share the many programs, events, and activities we have planned to make this school year extra special.

To stay connected and make sure you don’t miss out on the latest updates, weekly newsletters, and all the fun happenings, please register with the PTSA. Registration is completely free, and it’s the best way to keep up with everything we’ve planned for our kids. Just click the link below to get started! If you are already registered, please don't forget to update your student's teacher. 

Here’s to an amazing school year - we’re so excited to share it with you and your family!

Alcott's Open House Meet & Greet is on Thursday, August 28th between 2:45pm - 3:30 pm. 

You are invited to stop by the school with your child to meet teachers & staff. Feel free to bring student school supplies at that time to leave in the classroom. 

Due to parking and space limitations, we ask that only 1-2 family members join students for the visit. Be green and carpool as well! 

This is an optional event. Please do not worry if you are unable to attend.

Be sure to stop by the PTSA table to get more information about the school and the PTSA. We will have light snacks for the kids.
