Bogota Middle School Update
September 27, 2024
Essentials
Thank you to our parents and guardians who were able to attend Back to School Night this past Wednesday. We have a wonderful group of parents, and I am confident that through your guidance and support, your children will be successful in their academic endeavors. Please know that our teachers and staff are here to assist both you and your child with any issues that may arise.
A few important reminders:
- There will be no school on Thursday, October 3rd, in observance of Rosh Hashanah.
- Please ensure that your children are in uniform, on time, and present each and every day.
- It's important to monitor and talk with your children about appropriate behavior while using phones and technology.
Picture Day is being held on Monday, October 7th. Forms will be sent home with your child next week. Please make sure you look in their backpack or ask for them.

We hope to see a lot of parent participation at our upcoming PTO meeting. The PTO plays a vital role in supporting our school community—whether through visible initiatives or behind-the-scenes efforts. The strength of our PTO depends on you and your participation.
We understand that life can be hectic, but even a small amount of your time can make a big difference. Whether it's attending meetings to stay informed, volunteering a few hours, or simply sharing ideas, your involvement is invaluable.
Come to our next PTO meeting and discover how you can help make a positive impact on our school. Every bit of support counts, and we'd love to see you there!
