Hi Yealey Families,

I hope you've had a great week at home.  It's been great here.  I know many of you are dealing with Covid right now and I want to send you my wishes for a quick recovery.  We have about 3% of our students and staff positive right now which is in line with the whole district.  My hope is that we are nearing the peak of this wave of the virus and things will begin to calm down.  Please be sure and let us know if there's anything we can do to help support you.  Our team is always available for you!

Students spent some time this week taking the mid-year CASE test.  This test is a very useful tool for teachers to see the progress students have made on standards and really help guide us for the rest of this semester. All grade levels participated.

Please remember to watch the weather and listen carefully for home instruction or a snow day to be called over the next couple of weeks.  As you all know, I'm not a huge fan of winter and I'm sure I won't be lucky enough to make it to Spring without at least one snow, ice, cold mess! 😊

Have a great weekend and stay warm!

 Yealey Families,

I hope you've had a great week.  Those of us at school have had a good week.  We have had a high number of student and staff absences which is very unusual for us.  Thank you to everyone who has been patient and understanding as many of us have had to fill in for positions we have not done before!  I'm hopeful that we will all be feeling better next week and things can get back to normal.  

I have a few announcements from the PTA:

Remember that there is no school on Monday for Martin Luther King Jr day.  I hope the extended weekend helps give everyone a chance to get healthy!

Enjoy the snow if it comes this weekend.  Send us some pics of your snowmen!

 Hi Yealey Families, 

I hope everyone had a great winter break.  It was great to see the kids back this week.  They came in and got right back into the swing of things!  

Hopefully next week we can have a full week of in-person instruction.  We do have staff members out at a slightly higher rate than normal.  So please just be patient with us as we work together to fill in for each other.  We have the BEST staff here and we are working hard together to keep everything going for the kids.  I can't say enough about how amazing the Yealey staff is.  They give so much of themselves everyday for the kids.  We love our kids and will do whatever we can to take care of the Yealey Family!!

As always if you need assistance with anything, you can reach out to our FRC, Mrs. Burns-Kraft, our counselors, Ms Anderson & Mrs. Taulbee, or your principals.  We will be happy to assist you.

Have a great weekend and stay warm!

Mrs. Turner
