We Need You!!

The PTO is always in need of volunteers!!! It is a great opportunity to get involved in your student’s life and to meet people. The time commitment is minimal compared to the experience of relating to your pre-teen as he or she navigates through middle school.

A BIG THANK YOU to everyone who helped this past year. We know your time is valuable and we appreciate everything you did to make Hyatts Middle School programs a success.
