We are 3 weeks away from our Fall Bizarre at Austin Tracy Elementary. (Saturday, October 18th from 12-4 pm) The PTO is excited and there are so many activities for the students to do at the Bizarre, so many vendors to shop from, and of course some awesome food. The PTO is offering an incentive to the class that has the best attendance between today and Friday, October 17th. The students in the winning class will each receive a voucher to use towards playing all the games at the Fall Bizarre or to use at the concession stand. We have 20 different vendors that have reached out to provide some awesome items up for sale. (Get a start on your Christmas shopping or grab some awesome treats.) There is a list of vendors in the attachments as well! Please make plans to attend!
National PTO Appreciation Day is today, September 26th. This is a day to celebrate the dedicated volunteers of our Parent Teacher Organization and the work they do each day to support our school. We extend our gratitude to Mrs. Tabitha Gruber, Mrs. Sandy Young, Mrs. Ashley King, Mrs. Denise Williams, and Mrs. Aubrey Thompson for all they do through fundraising, decorating, planning events, and their overall support of teachers and students.
Need help with food? You may qualify for SNAP assistance.

Next week is Agriculture Education Week throughout the state of Kentucky. Agriculture is vital to our local and state economy and it's important that we help our students understand why it is so important! BCHS FFA members will be on campus next week to meet with classes during their PE time to share important information about Agriculture in Barren County. The district has also released a dress up week to help students engage in the learning! Please see the attachment for each day's theme!
Today, our school remembered Patriots Day by hosting a special program led by our Gifted & Talented students. We were honored to welcome a very special guest speaker, Mr. James Vitale, a decorated New York City police inspector and 9/11 survivor. He also worked as Deputy Director of Counter Terrorism for the New York City Department of Transportation and has dedicated his life to helping and serving others. He shared his story to remind us of the importance of courage, hope, and caring for one another.
We were also blessed to have many local first responders join us for our program. They were served a light breakfast as a small token of our appreciation for their selfless service to our country.
HELP NEEDED-
Our PTO is in need of donations for the ring toss at Fall Festival on Saturday, October 18th. They are requesting individual drinks of any kind- soda, Gatorade, juices, etc. They ask that these NOT be 2-liters. Donations can be dropped off at the school, as there is a tote in the office. We appreciate your support and generosity!
If this would benefit your family, please take advantage of this community giveaway!
Have big plans tomorrow night? Need a quick grab and go meal?
Go to Zaxby’s from 5-8 pm to support our Austin Tracy PTO! They do so many things for our staff and students and this is a great way that we can help them add to their fund!
