Let's Goet(z) Together to Talk About 5th Grade - February 25

Please join us for a virtual conversation with Ms. Goetz this Friday, February 25 from 8:15-8:45a.m. Our conversation will feature a Q & A about next year's 5th grade at Sylvan Park. Click here to join the discussion.

Kindergarten Registration

Families can now register for kindergarten! Fliers and posters will be sent to school sites in the following weeks; digital copies will be available on the MNPS Early Learning webpage.

Sylvan Park Day with the Belmont Bruins THIS Saturday!

Belmont University has graciously offered to sponsor a Sylvan Park Elementary Day with the Belmont Bruins by providing discounted tickets for our school community. All SP students, families, teachers and staff are invited to watch the Belmont Bruins take on the TSU Tigers this Saturday, February 26th.

All tickets are $10.08/ticket. Each discounted ticket purchased allows entry to both the 3:00pm Women's Basketball Game, as well as the 5:00pm Men's Basketball Game. If you can only attend one game, that is fine. But your ticket purchase is good for both games. All seats will be in the Bruins Kids Zone for family fun and entertainment.

To buy tickets, please use this link: https://offer.fevo.com/tennessee-state-dh-58tp3wu-d37bf7c?fevoUri=tennessee-state-dh-58tp3wu-d37bf7c%2F.

This link is a private one for Sylvan Park only and will not be accessible through Belmont Basketball's webpage. Only tickets purchased through this link will receive the discounted rate.
