We have sure missed you and can't wait to see you back at school on August 15th!
Please read carefully for information regarding back to school.
On August 1st and 2nd, kindergarten screening will take place by appointment. The times for appointments are between 8:00 AM-12:00 PM and 3:00 PM-6:00 PM. If you have an upcoming kindergartener, please call the office at (479)750-8862 to make a screening appointment.
- August 11th from 4:00-5:30 is our back to school meet and greet for all K-5th grade students and families.
- As you may have heard, the waiver that allowed free lunches for all students has expired. Beginning this year we will, again, be charging for lunch. The good news is that, thanks to Federal assistance, we will NOT have to increase costs for student trays. All students will continue to receive a free breakfast each day through the Breakfast in the Classroom program. The full price cost for lunch is $2.45, and $0.40 for reduced lunch. You may use the link below to apply for free or reduced lunch.
- Our first day of school is on Monday, August 15th.
- School Supply fees can be paid online now using the following link. Please disregard the lists at Wal-Mart. They are no longer current. When paying online, don’t forget to type your child’s name and grade in the description box. Students will also need to bring over the ear headphones and a backpack without wheels.
- Be sure to follow us on Facebook (John Tyson Elementary School) for up-to-date information.
- In order to receive up-to-date communication, please sign up for text alerts and the newsletter for the 22-23 school year using the links below.
We are looking forward to seeing our Tigers soon!

Shelly R. Poage, Principal, and Ashley Kirby, Assistant Principal
