Hello WB Community! 
Welcome to Week 2! The first-day outfits have been worn, the photos have been taken, and now the real Bulldog grit kicks in for the morning alarm.
After-School Club Sign-Ups This Week, Spiritwear Updates, Resources, Fundraising Needs, & More: 

HAPPENING NOW:


  • Fall 2026 After-School Clubs Sign-Ups begin FRIDAY! Individual Club Flyers will be posted on the WBPTO website before then. Sneak Peek Below & HERE.
  • Backpack Program - HERE.
    The Waverly Belmont Backpack Program offers a
    weekend supply of nutritious meals and snacks for
    students - completely free of charge.

  • SAVE THE DATE - FONDA FALL FUNDRAISER 10/6 - We need a volunteer to lead our silent auction ASAP. If you are interested or would like more information, please email us at waverlybelmontpto@gmail.com!
  • PTO has a big goal this year:  We must raise $200K to fully support our students, teachers, and school programs. Our business partnerships are crucial to helping us get there! Do you own a business, or work for a company that loves supporting the local community? We would love to partner with you as a PTO sponsor this year, and there is still time to get your company logo on the back of the Bulldog Bolt shirt! If you want to learn more, please reach out to Catherine Tuck- tuck.catherine@gmail.com to discuss ways your business can help.
  • Community Connections Survey - HERE.
  • Spiritwear Updates
    You may notice a slight increase in prices this week, as the base cost for our Tshirts and prints has increased from last year. We are trying to keep increases to a minimum to ensure that the PTO does not lose money on the sales and that things remain as affordable as possible for our families.
    DID YOU KNOW: We do have some inventory on hand - please email wbespiritwear@gmail.com if you'd like to explore what we have on hand and not wait for production time!
    Upcoming WB Spiritwear to look out for:
    -WBE Car Magnets will be available soon on the PTO website 
    -Athletic/Dri-Fit shirts in our standard design will be available soon on the PTO website
    -Bulldog Bolt Tshirt Sales and Donations
    -A limited design available later this Fall.

A friendly but urgent reminder to our community:  
Please slow down, stay alert, and practice extra patience on the roads. Just yesterday, two of our local students were nearly hit by cars while riding their bikes to school. Now that school is back in session, our streets are filled with children walking, biking, and waiting for buses. Distracted driving or rushing by just a few seconds can have devastating consequences. Please talk to your family, friends, and neighbors to remind them that a little extra patience goes a very long way in keeping our neighborhood safe. Let's work together to look out for our kids and ensure everyone makes it to school and back home safely each day.
