Lost & Found
Is your child missing a sweatshirt, jacket or water bottle? We currently have a number of items in our Lost and Found, and parents/guardians are welcome to claim them. Lost and Found items may be picked up next week on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday between 4:00–5:30 p.m. Please take a moment to review the attached photos of the lost items to see if any belong to your child. Any unclaimed items after this time may be donated. Thank you for your help in keeping our school organized.
As construction continues around our campus, we kindly ask for your partnership to help reduce traffic congestion during morning arrival and afternoon dismissal. Please have your child take the school bus whenever possible instead of being dropped off or picked up by car. The bus is not only the most efficient way to transport students to and from school, but it is also the most environmentally friendly option. Fewer vehicles on campus will ease delays and help ensure a safer environment for our students, staff, and families during this busy time. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work to enhance our school facilities for the benefit of our students.
If you are experiencing a problem with technology call 845-353-7075 for assistance.

Drop-Off and Pick-Up Procedures:
Nyack Middle School begins at 8:04 a.m. If you drop your child off on Wednesday, please enter our campus via the Dickinson Avenue entrance only. When you approach Nyack Middle School, you will be directed by our security team to a drop-off point located in the front of our building. Please do not attempt to pass any vehicles in line. Due to the high number of vehicles dropping students off during the first day of school, it is best to allow extra time to complete the drop-off process. Please do not arrive on campus until 2:40 p.m. Students are dismissed at 2:50 p.m. When you arrive for dismissal, please follow the directions of the security personnel. Due to safety and security concerns, you must remain in your vehicle during arrival and dismissal, and our security team will escort your child to your car after all of our buses depart.

Autumn in Nyack
Nyack Middle School serves approximately 660 students in grades 6 through 8. We strive to create an environment where all children learn, grow and become "better students and better citizens" who will contribute to this outstanding community. Nyack Middle School strives to prepare our students to lead in our ever-evolving world. We stress 21st-Century skills such as collaboration, communication, critical thinking, compassion, creativity, and cultural awareness. The faculty and staff of Nyack Middle School hold the highest expectations of excellence from the students that we teach. 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. We will continue to promote Nyack Middle School P.R.I.D.E. by teaching our behavior expectations daily while also understanding that mistakes in behavior provide opportunities for learning and growth. With this approach, we will have not only better students but also better citizens.
We believe that our diversity is our greatest strength. We celebrate our differences and embrace the melting pot that this district and country embodies.
Parental involvement and communication are the foundation of any successful school. As a resident of this community and a parent of two students who attend Nyack Public Schools, I am deeply invested in the success of every student attending Nyack Middle School. Thank you for entrusting your children's education to the faculty and staff of Nyack Middle School. Please feel free to email me if you have any questions or concerns.
