Yealey Elementary School Newsletter

Hi Yealey Families,

I hope you've all had a great week.  It has been a great week here and amazing- we made it through January without a snow day.  Could it be that we will actually get out of school for the summer on May 20th?

Thank you to all the families who participated in all our evening activities this week.  It has been a jam packed week here after school.  On Monday, we hosted a math night for K - 2 parents.  It was nice to have a curriculum based discussion with parents and I appreciate the interest in the academics.  Here are the resources from that event:

We had our Leader In Me Family Challenge Celebration Thursday evening.  I was so happy to see our families who took on the challenge.  We are already thinking about how to make this even better next year, so if you didn't get in on it this year, make plans to join us next year!  This evening our PTA hosted a movie night.  We counted over 75 people in attendance.  Thank you to everyone who came out to enjoy the movie and thanks to the PTA for getting this organized.  Be sure to watch for information coming home about upcoming PTA events and opportunities to volunteer.

I hope everyone has a great weekend.  My family will be basketball and football fans all weekend long.

See you next week,
Mrs. Turner
