Youth Art Month
Youth Art Month (YAM), has been celebrated nationally each March since 1961 to highlight some of the amazing teaching and learning happening in visual arts education across the United States and to promote the understanding of visual arts as a critical factor in the total education curriculum that develops citizens of a global society.
Please click here to view the virtual show. Our art teachers could only choose 8 students each through various mediums and materials to submit to the show making it incredibly difficult to choose!

Hannaford is excited to bring Hannaford Helps Schools to our community for the spring of 2024. Since the program's inception, they have raised over $18 million for local schools and are looking forward to a bigger and better program this year.
Once again, they will be collecting donations using online redemption and in- store collections towers. Using online redemption and the Hannaford Helps Schools app, School Dollars can be donated directly to any participating school. Be sure to select Miscoe Hill Middle School as the school you'd like to support! Stores will continue to have a collection tower by the registers, which would distribute your school dollars evenly to all participating schools. School Dollars can be turned into the main office through Friday, May 31 which will than be turned into the Hannaford and those school dollars will be donated towards Miscoe specifically .
