It’s almost POPCORN FRIDAY, and we’re brewing up another delicious Friday tradition! 🧡

🎃 Friday, October 9th

❤️🖤 A HUGE Tiger-sized THANK YOU to Papa Don’s! 🐯

Papa Don's Pizza isn’t just our October Popcorn Friday sponsor. They’re one of our PTO’s biggest cheerleaders and supporters! From generously supporting our events to helping us bring special experiences to our students, Papa Don’s continues to show up for our schools in a BIG way.

We’re incredibly lucky to have a local business that believes in our kids and puts that belief into action time and time again. ❤️

So the next time you’re craving pizza, cheese sticks, or that AMAZING ranch (seriously, they need to bottle that stuff! 🤤), show Papa Don’s some love! Supporting the businesses that support our Tigers is what makes this community so special.

👻 Grab those quarters, little ghosts and goblins! It’s going to be a POP-tacular Friday!

🐯🏈 FORT SCOTT — OUR YOUNGEST TIGERS ARE COMING HOME! 🏈🐯

This Saturday is a pretty special one for Tiger football. ❤️🤍

For the first time ever, Fort Scott has a 3rd/4th grade tackle football team — and this weekend they’ll play their FIRST HOME GAME at Frary Field!

The Tigers are 1-1, coming off an exciting overtime win against the Pittsburg Purple Dragons, and now they’re taking on the Arma Vikings!

📅 Saturday, October 3
⏰ 2:00 PM
📍 Frary Field

These kids have been working hard, and we’d LOVE to give them a real Fort Scott home-field welcome.

Wear your RED & WHITE, bring the family, fill the stands, and GET LOUD for these young Tigers! ❤️🤍🐯

There’s something pretty cool about watching the next generation of Tiger football take the field for the very first time.

LET’S PACK FRARY! 🏈🔥

Winfield Scott Elementary Eugene Ware Elementary School

🏈Our very first home game is coming up!🏈

To our knowledge, we are the VERY FIRST 3rd/4th grade tackle football team in Fort Scott history!

See history being made this Saturday, and all the kids, coaches, and parents who are part of it! We’re so thankful for each of you!

🗓️ Saturday, October 3rd

🍕 It’s Friday… so obviously we’re already thinking about cheese sticks. 😋

Good news: there will be some waiting for you at Monday’s PTO meeting!

📅 Monday (9/28/2026) at 6:00 PM
📍 Papa Don’s Celebration Room
🧀 Cheese sticks provided — complete with their yummy marinara AND, arguably, the best ranch in town.

Seriously, Papa Don's Pizza… bottle the ranch. We’d buy it. 😂

Come grab a cheese stick, hear what PTO has coming up, share an idea, or just hang out and see what we’re all about. No big commitment required.

🐯 Monday. 6 PM. Papa Don’s. See you there!
