Are you looking for a fun, fulfilling way to get involved at Sylvan Park? We have the perfect job for you! Our PTO is still in need of a Vice President. The Vice President will work closely to support next year’s PTO President, learning the ropes along the way, and will serve as the PTO President for the 2023-2024 school year. If you have a desire to serve and to be a part of a fantastic community of parent and teacher volunteers, email Theresa Yarber.

Kindergarten is studying life in the past, so Ms. Calverly has been digging through some Sylvan Park history in the library and found these gems from 1958. These are some students planting what later became the big magnolia tree out front. What a big difference a small act of service has made for our community!

Come to Preston Taylor Ministries on Tuesday, April 12 from 6-7pm for a potluck dinner and games! A main dish will be provided; K & 1st grade families can bring a side dish, 2nd & 3rd grade families can bring dessert or fruit, and 4th grade families can bring drinks. We hope you will join us for this fun night of community building!
