Vehicles needing to enter the middle school should do so through the South Highland Avenue entrance (normally an exit only). No vehicle will be able to enter the middle school using Dickinson Avenue.
There will be signage to clearly redirect all vehicles to enter Nyack Middle School from South Highland Avenue. In addition, there will be no parking along the hill past the middle school circle at the main entrance door, all the way down to the South Highland entrance/exit during this construction. All staff and visitors to the middle school will use the lower parking lot; the lot closest to the field will be used for staging of the construction.

We have an unwavering dedication to helping students achieve their goals and dreams.
At Nyack Middle School, we are charged with developing the minds of the young people whom we teach. We strive to instill character in our students that reflects the values of this great community. Our students learn to have empathy and responsibility towards each other.

Parental involvement and communication are the foundation of any successful school.
