One more week until a long Labor Day weekend.  We can do it!

• The College Career Technology and Education (CTAE) class needs your help!  For upcoming lessons, we are collecting the following: paper towel rolls, empty water bottles and 2L bottles (with lids!).  Do you have these around the house?  Please have your child drop these items off in the bins by the CTAE classroom.  Any questions? Reach out to Mrs. Spoeth (CTAE Teacher).
• Don’t forget to add money here to your child’s lunch account.  On this site you can see how much money they have left and what they have purchased.  Are they buying more than one lunch a day?  Want to limit items that your child buys? Have any lunch purchase related questions?  Please email our amazing cafeteria manager Ms. Lynn.
• Curriculum Night is coming next week! Parents come to the school to hear what the students will be learning about this school year.  It is a night to learn about the school and the different processes in place at BFES.  Check out the dates below.  
• Check out the attachment for the FERPA Opt Out form. We do not have many parents do this, but I wanted to share it regardless. It is due at the end of the month if you choose to do it.

Our 2025-2026 PTO Membership Drive starts on Monday!

The 2025–2026 school year is off to an exciting start — and we’re turning up the volume with our NEW 5-tier PTO Membership program! Stay tuned for Monday's communications on how to get involved and learn more about our largest and most impactful fundraiser for the year!

Each year, the PTO raises funds that stay 100% within our school to support student enrichment, staff empowerment, and community-building initiatives. Your generous contributions help fill the gap between what public funding provides and what our students truly deserve. 

By joining or supporting our PTO, you're helping to build a stronger, more connected school—and creating meaningful opportunities that benefit all students. 

At Birmingham Falls, we believe in the power of community. The BFES Sunshine Fund is a special initiative driven by the PTO that is designed to support our Bobcat families and staff during life’s ups and downs. Whether we’re celebrating joyful milestones—like a new baby or a big achievement—or offering support during more difficult times, the Sunshine Fund allows our community to come together and show that we care.

How is it funded: A portion of every PTO membership will automatically go toward the Sunshine Fund, helping ensure that no one faces life’s big moments alone. Families and individuals also have the option to make direct contributions to the fund at any time via the PTO Website. 

This is just one more way we’re making sure Birmingham Falls feels like home—because Bobcats take care of Bobcats.
