LCES PTO Updates

Let us all welcome the 2024-2026 LCES PTO board officers!

Join us at the PTO next board meeting on May 13th at 5:30pm for their induction and to recognize the 2022-2024 board members.

LCES PTO has formed a committee to help with:
- Teacher Appreciation Week: May 6-10th
- If you would like to help with this committee please email lyoncountyschoolspto@gmail.com
- This committee is also looking for monetary and gift card donations. Please reach out to PTO to help.
- Would you be willing to show your appreciation for teachers and staff by donating an item on the list? Or the amount of money to fund the item? Needed by Friday, May 3rd. Cash, Check to LCES PTO, or PayPal to Lyon County Schools PTO.
- LCES PTO also suggests you thank your child's teacher personally. These are their favorites.

***If you won a bid at the 2024 Experience Auction and have not heard from or scheduled the donation experience, please contact the donor again or PTO at lyoncountyschoolspto@gmail.com and we can help you.

***Talk with your kiddos about their behavior on our buses. Our children need to ride to school quietly and calmly. Bus drivers need to focus their attention on driving not redirecting student behavior. We as parents know how difficult it can be to drive with distractions in the carseats behind us; we as parents need to remind our children how to act on a bus to and from school.

***Talk with your child's teacher. Do they need any supplies for their classroom? April and May are months when classrooms supplies are low. Let us help our children learn the best they can by helping to provide the needed supplies.
