 Hi Yealey Families -

It's been a great week at school.  We have been working hard during school and in our before and after school clubs.  It's so great to see all the kids here and back to so many fun activities!  Video club and chorus are working hard on our Veteran's Day presentation.  I can't wait to see their final product and share it with you.  Lego Leagues have also been busy each morning becoming engineers and solving problems.  Thank you to all our club sponsors for providing such awesome opportunities to our kids!

Yealey is scheduled to get a major renovation starting this summer.  It will be a 2 year project and will be a renovation of all parts of the building that are 30 years old (or older!).  This will include the main hallway and all the classrooms 1 - 27 and the 4th grade section and restrooms.  The 5th grade classrooms will not be renovated but will still receive upgrades.  The music room wing has already received some upgrades and so should not be touched.  The office, library, and cafeteria are not 30 years old - they were completed in 2001 so they will not be touched but the library and office already received new carpet last summer.  There will also be upgrades to a lot of our mechanics such as HVAC, electric, and plumbing.  I would love to gather parent opinions on things you'd like to see occur during the renovation.  While some ideas might not be feasible - there are lots of rules/laws when it comes to school buildings - I would still love to hear what you'd like to see.  I asked the teachers for ideas already and I plan to ask the kids in December to get their ideas as well. So please complete this 1 question survey by 11/23 to give me your top 3 changes.  I can't wait to hear from you! Parent Renovation Survey

I hope everyone has a great weekend!  Don't forget to set you clocks back in hour Saturday night and enjoy the extra hour of sleep!

Mrs. Turner
