Our 2024 Red Ribbon Week campaign- KEEP OUR "SPACE" A DRUG FREE PLACE-will be held October 28th-November 1st. To celebrate, we will be holding our annual essay contest which starts TODAY! Students should answer the themed essay question below and drop their completed essays at the front desk by 11/1. A winner from each grade level will be awarded a Catch Air pass and a free meal card for Raising Canes. Tell us how you are choosing to live healthy and strong!
Our Dads on Duty Committee will be sponsoring a High Five MONDAY in honor of Veteran's Day on MONDAY, November 11th. If you or a family member are a veteran, we'd love to have you join us to greet our students in the bus and carpool lanes on Veteran's Day. Sign ups will be posted soon on our website at puckettsmillpta.org/volunteer-corner. Time frame is from 7:30am-8:15am. This is a low time commitment event that is a sure-fire way to start your day with a smile!
Yearbook ads are a great way to celebrate your student and are especially popular with our 5th grade students. Ad orders are available on the Jostens site below. PLEASE NOTE: You must have your photos ready to design the ad when it’s purchased.
To order, visit https://pmesyearbook.weebly.com/.
We are working with a new company this year! Order your yearbook now before the price increases on 9/6! To order, visit www.pmesyearbook.com.
Want to purchase an ad to go in the back of the yearbook for your student? This is very popular with our 5th graders! Deadline to purchase ad space is 11/11 (or order your ad before 10/10 to secure early bird pricing). You must have your photos ready to design the ad when it’s purchased.
Want to submit photos for this year's yearbook? We love that! You can email your photos to pmeshawksyearbook@gmail.com or just post them in the comments section when we issue photo calls right here on Facebook! No need to do both-our Yearbook Committee will pull the photos from Facebook if you post them =)
Let’s make some memories this year at PMES!
You can now support PMES PTA through your everyday purchases. Every time you shop or dine out, our PTA will receive a donation from the business you are patronizing and you can earn cash back. It's a win-win! (This is a replacement for our Amazon Smiles program which was discontinued last year.)
Give Givebacks a try! Follow the steps below to see just how amazing it is and how you can help your PTA!
1. Sign up for Givebacks
Head to givebacks.com, choose Puckett's Mill ES PTA, and create your account. Mobile and desktop purchases are both included in this program.
2. Securely link your card
This will earn our school cash back for in-person shopping and dining. You can also head to the Local Offers page in your Givebacks account to see which local restaurants and retailers are donating to our cause.
3. Earn cashback!
Once you have added the browser extensions, go shopping to start earning cashback and send the $5 bonus to our cause. You'll also earn $5 for each new active backer you refer.
The goal of the PTA is to enhance the educational experience for all students at Puckett's Mill. Thanks to a lot of generous support from families like yours, the PTA sponsors and provides:
~Fall Festival

At the end of each school year, any remaining PTA funds are donated back to PMES. While the PTA does make donations to the school throughout the year for very specific uses (music program, media center, etc.), the end of year donation is to be used exclusively for educational materials and support.
We're grateful for the community we have at PMES to be able to support our teachers, staff and students this way. We truly believe PMES is a special place and it wouldn't be the same without all of you!
Join us for our September PTA meeting on Monday, November 11th at 6:00pm in the Media Center! Childcare will be provided for SCHOOL AGED CHILDREN (Kindergarten-5th grade) by Mill Creek High School Beta Club volunteers. All are welcome! See you there!
