Are you looking for a rewarding way to be involved at Sylvan Park?
|
The PTO needs a Home Room Parent (HRP) for each classroom. HRPs are a tradition at Sylvan Park! This role serves as a liaison between teachers, parents, and the PTO board.
|
Please consider volunteering for this most rewarding role for your child's classroom this year.

Each month will have a different stock the lounge theme. In order to simplify the process, will be sending out a signup genius bimonthly. We will ask for things flat will go will our theme as well as the basics. Help us stock the lounge and show our teachers how much we appreciate them with an Apple Bar for August AND a Coffee Bar for September.

Preston Taylor Ministries (PTM) will open on August 28, 2023. That is also when PTM school pickups will begin.
|
This is later than in previous years as we are needing time to rest from our very busy summer schedule and prepare for school year programming. Looking forward to another year together.

.To secure a spot for your child in this program, be sure to sign up at the McCabe facility. Act quickly, as spaces are limited and fill up fast. You will also be required to sign the permission form for Sylvan Park (ask for one at the front desk or from your child's teacher).

All Metro Nashville Public Schools students will receive no-cost meals during the 2023-2024 school year thanks to the support of the MNPS Board of Education and the federal Community Eligibility Provision program.
|
And, while student meals are no cost, families who may quality for free and reduced meals, and whose students are not attending a CEP school are encouraged to submit a Meal Benefits Application because qualification helps connect families to things such as:
|
- discounts for fees associated with college applications
- scholarships and fee discounts for SAT, ACT and AP tests
- greater federal reimbursement to provide for program improvement
