Tucker Cares

Donate to Tucker Cares

The Tucker Cares program is a community building initiative where students are encouraged to volunteer and perform acts of kindness throughout various organizations in Milton.  We have planned activities throughout the school year to encourage students and their families to participate in some or all options. We hope you will get involved! The schedule is as follows:

Tucker Community Update: 
Supporting One Another Through Upcoming SNAP Changes

With the impending cuts to SNAP benefits as of November 1st, we want to remind our Tucker community of the local resources available, whether you are in need of food assistance or would like to support our friends and neighbors.

Meals at School
All Tucker students will be provided with breakfast and lunch each school day.

Snacks Available at the Front Office
The PTO will be purchasing snacks that can be accessed through the front office.
Students can access the snacks directly, and parents are welcome to visit the front office to shop for snacks for their children as needed.

Tucker Cares Closet
The Tucker Cares Closet, located within the PTO closet at Tucker, provides seasonal clothing items and toiletries like dental and personal hygiene supplies. If your family could benefit from this support, we encourage you to check in with the front office during school hours for access to the closet. If you have questions about what specific products are in the closet, please feel free to email tuckerptomilton@gmail.com.

If you’re interested in helping sustain these efforts, donations to the Tucker Cares program can be made through the Tucker Cares Donation Link. Every contribution makes a difference.

For additional community resources, please see here. 

The Tucker PTO will continue to monitor community needs and adapt our support to ensure we are helping families in the most effective ways possible.

With gratitude,
Your Tucker PTO

Pumpkin Pie-A-Thon

Wednesday, November 19th

This year the Milton Food Pantry is expecting to assist over 150 families with Thanksgiving dinners thanks to the generous help of the food drive across all MPS.  However, they are missing one Thanksgiving favorite, the pumpkin pie.

Please join us as we work to assemble pumpkin pie kits to share with our neighbors! 

  • At 12:45 pm after early release in the gym.

  • Students will be dismissed at 12:30 pm and will then be allowed back into Tucker with an accompanying adult at 12:45 pm.  This is not a drop-off.  Students must be with a supervising adult.  

  • Lunch will not be provided but students can eat lunch brought from home or a bagged lunch given at dismissal. 

  • If you cannot attend but would like to contribute to the pie-a-thon you can sign up to donate ingredients via the SignUp Genius or make a donation.
