School Yearbooks
Yearbooks are officially on sale! We are using Classic Photography and Imaging (the same company we are using for photography) for our yearbook this year. The yearbook staff has been busy taking lots of photographs and we are hoping to add some more pages to the yearbook. Order today, the price will increase on January 1st.
Holiday Gift Shop
The Myersville PTA is excited to announce that The Holiday Gift Shop will be back again this holiday season. Taking place on Thursday, December 15 and Friday, December 16, all MYES students will have the opportunity to experience the joy of giving and purchase inexpensive, but meaningful gifts for their loved ones in time for the holidays. More information to follow in the coming weeks. The PTA is recruiting parent volunteers to help staff The Holiday Gift Shop. Click here if you are interested in signing up for a volunteer shift, and feel free to reference the student shopping schedule here if you’d like to volunteer when your child(ren) is shopping.
The PTA is also collecting scholarship funds to ensure all students have an opportunity to shop. If you are able, please consider making a $20 donation, or the most generous gift you are comfortable with, so that school-identified students can shop just like their friends. Contributions accepted via PayPal link here or via check (made out to MYES PTA and sent to the school address to the attention of Myersville PTA - Dawn Garrott). Questions? Email allison.s.lanham@gmail.com.

Arrival- Students can begin to arrive between 8:30 and 9:00 am. For the safety of our students, students cannot be permitted in the building prior to 8:30 am. Instruction begins promptly at 9:00 am.
Walkers are asked to enter the building at the Kindergarten doors. Car riders should be dropped off in the back lot in the car rider loop between 8:30-9:00 am. Please remain in a single file line.
Dismissal- Walkers and car riders will be dismissed at 3:30 pm. Walkers exit from the main entrance while car riders are dismissed in the back of the school. Students will wait inside the school in the gym. Please remain in your vehicle while waiting in the car rider loop.
Car rider pick up will be in two waves in order to minimize traffic on Main Street. Please do not block the crosswalk on Main Street if you are waiting. If you have multiple children at MYES, please arrive at 3:30. If you have only one child, please arrive at 3:40. Your adherence to these times will greatly support our school dismissal- thank you in advance.
