Exceptional Children's Week
Come enjoy a special lunch date with your student!
Parents, grandparents, and other special guests are invited to join us in the cafeteria during their student's lunch period. Each class has been assigned a specific day which has been communicated by your child's teacher. Each student is able to have a maximum of 2 guests.
Guests will sign in at the front office and meet their student outside of the cafeteria. When lunch is over, guests may accompany their student to the Media Center to shop at our Spring Book Fair.
Due to safety protocols, guests will not be allowed to visit the student's classroom or join them for recess. Once guests are done with lunch/shopping, they must exit the building.
We look forward to seeing you the week of February 6!

We hope that in the coming year, you will help us continue giving our school incredible support by volunteering your time and talents, contributing financially or both.
Here are some of the ways you can play a role in our school’s success:
Join the PTA. This is a simple step that you can take on MemberHub. It only costs $7 per child, parent, or family member to join, and you are not required to attend meetings. As a PTA member, you can serve on one of our committees, vote on matters brought before the PTA, benefit from several discounts, or simply show that you support our school. Click on the Membership tab to learn more and become a member today!
Volunteer. Our programs are only successful because of our volunteers! We have a wide variety of volunteer opportunities ranging from those that can be done at home to those that require a few hours at school and those that require lots of time at school. In your child’s classroom at Open House, you will see a form where you can sign up to volunteer in a way that works for you.
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
~Father Daughter Dance
~Mother-Son Event
~Scholastic Book Fair
~Yearbook
~Dads on Duty
~Bingo Night

~And much more...
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.
At the November PTA meeting, the members in attendance heard a report on how last year's PTA donation to PMES has been spent. To date, the school has used the funds to purchase the following:
`$5,900 has been used to purchase subscriptions to Scholastic News, Storyworks and Dynamath
`$11,800 has been used to purchase digital licenses for programs such as RazKids, Learning A-Z, Freckle Math, Brain Pop and Starfall
~$3,000 has been used to purchase classroom supplies such as STEM toy building blocks for 1st grade, LEGO chain reaction kits for STEM and color sorting animals for the self contained classrooms
The school will continue to purchase educational materials throughout the year as needs arise.
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!
Please reach us at pmesptaexecutiveboard@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.
Yes, we encourage you to purchase a PTA membership for each parent and all students who attend PMES as our PTA bylaws do not allow "Family Memberships." To join, click on the Membership tab above or visit our MemberHub site at https://puckettsmill.memberhub.com/. Please select the appropriate member type (either "Parent/Guardian" or "Student"). We appreciate your support!
Each membership helps strengthen our community as we strive to enhance student learning and enrich the lives of ALL of our students.
Members are able to vote on matters that help support our students, staff, and school-while also receiving PTA perks, such as discounts on event tickets, coupons from our Business Partners, monthly drawings to win prizes, and much more.
Join us on Friday, February 24th at 10:30am in the PTA room for our February PTA meeting!

All are welcome to attend, but only PTA members may vote.
