Panther Newsletter: September 24, 2025
Hello Panther Families!
We’re about a month into the school year and already feeling the excitement—especially with our new PTO leadership team in place. If you missed our first meeting, meet your newly elected PTO board:
Grace Poulsen – Co-President
Heather Walker – Co-President
Sarah Roth – Co-President
Angie Evans – Vice President
Ryan Flood – Treasurer
Beth Kendall – Secretary
Dale Allison – Communications Director
Still Available – Volunteer Coordinator
We're lucky to have an incredible group of volunteers leading our committees and activity groups — and we're always looking to grow the team! Many hands make light work, and your help can make a big difference.
Interested? Email us at hoodrivermiddleschoolpto@gmail.com
We have a large list of families we email, and we realize some of you may no longer have students at Hood River Middle School.
If that’s the case, please reply to this email and let us know—we’ll happily remove you to avoid cluttering your inbox (and getting flagged as junk).
Know someone who should be receiving these updates? Please forward this to them and have them email us to get added!
Please note food and drinks are not allowed in the auditorium. Concessions will be available during intermission/dance break.
We’ll also have glow sticks and a Purple Crayon Table—don’t miss it!
Come find us at football and volleyball games this fall—we’ll be selling snacks and drinks!
Cash is preferred, but we also accept Venmo.
Look for us at boys and girls basketball games in the winter!
We’re crowdsourcing fun, creative ideas for this year’s holiday fundraiser (and future ones too!).
Got something you're excited about? please fill out this form by October 3rd.
Our leadership team will review ideas and present options at our next meeting
Next PTO Meeting:
Monday, October 20th @ 6:00 PM
Library – Bring a friend!
We'll be discussing:
K-Pop Event details
Holiday fundraiser plans
Budget update
Teacher stipend requests
Thanks for being part of our amazing school community. Your support helps make all of this possible—and we’re just getting started!
With appreciation,
Your HRMS PTO Team
