Message from our PTO:
We are so sad to share that the PACHANGA ON THE PLAYGROUND scheduled for this Friday has been CANCELLED. Between damage on the playground, at many of our homes, and the threat of rain the remainder of the week, we felt it best to give everyone Friday night off.
A special THANK YOU to Bodega Tavern & Kitchen for always stepping up and offering the love at our events! We will miss your tacos on the playground this week.
We are ESPECIALLY and INCREDIBLY thankful to the McAllen ISD Facilities Maintenance and Operations crew for all of their hard work in cleaning up our school and all of the McAllen ISD facilities. While Ben Milam Elementary definitely took a hit, there are other schools that are so much worse off than ours. We are so grateful for the time, effort, and love that the FMO staff puts into taking care of our schools.
For our K-4th grade families--we look forward to a fun pachanga at some point during the 2023-2024 school year. STAY TUNED!!!
For our 5th grade families--THANK YOU for your commitment to and love for the Ben Milam Elementary PTO's events through your years here! It is such a special community because of each of you and your families! 💙🧡
