Hello Yealey Families,
I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving break.  We came back to a very busy schedule here at Yealey.  Missoula Theater has been here all week after school for the students who signed up to participate in this program and they were here this afternoon to do a whole school assembly.  I am really looking forward to the play this evening and would encourage anyone who can to come and see it.  It begins at 8:00 and costs just $5 per family to attend.  Every play they have done here has just been amazing!
All students should have written their Wildly Important Goal by now either individually or as a class.  Ask your child what they hope to accomplish as a writer this year.  I am very excited to see the progress they will all make. 
We have lots of fun activities coming up over the next few weeks leading up to our Winter Break.  Be sure to check the calendar, watch for info from teachers, and check out our social media to stay up on all the happenings!
I hope everyone has a great weekend!
See you in December!

Hi Yealey Families,

I can't believe it's Thanksgiving already.  This school year is going so fast!  We have had a great week here at Yealey.  This week we had our first, Drop Everything and Write Time.  I surprised the school by getting on the announcements and asking every person in the school to stop what they were doing and write for 10 minutes telling me what their favorite dessert is.  We are going to do this several times this school year.  It seemed to go very well and I was excited to run into a student outside of school and have him excitedly come and tell me about what he wrote about that day!

I hope everyone enjoys the long weekend and Thanksgiving holiday!  I know in my family of big eaters, it's one of the favorite days of the year!

See you next week!

Good Afternoon Yealey Families,

I hope you've had a great week.  We have had lots of exciting things happening here at school.  Please check out this video for a look at this month's Boone County School's Break the Mold winner, Robin Mullins.  We are very happy that Mrs. Mullins was recognized for the great job that she does everyday! https://youtu.be/r9MGSorqN2A

Thank you to everyone who attended our Veteran's Day program today or who sent in candy for our troops.  It was a great event.  I was so proud of our students for leading the event and helping us honor our Veteran's. 

Over the next couple of weeks our students should be writing Wildly Important Goals for themselves around writing.  Be sure to ask you child what their goal is and more importantly how they plan to reach it. 

I hope everyone enjoys the weekend with family and friends. 

See you next week.

Hi Yealey Families,

What a fun week it's been here at Yealey!  Loved seeing all the kids come dressed in costumes showing their creativity and personalities on Wednesday.  Thanks to everyone who came up and cheered them on during the parade. 

Our 2nd grade is in need of some chapter books to restock our Bobcat Book Cafe. If you have any chapters books that are in good shape and that you would be willing to donate, please send them in to Mrs. Beasley.

Next week we have no school on Tuesday, November 6th for election day.  There was  a typo in the agenda book that listed the 9th as our day off but it is the 6th. 

I hope everyone has a great weekend with family and friends.  See you next week!
