Yealey Families,

I hope everyone is excited about our Fall Festival tonight.  Most of the activities will be outside 5:00 - 8:00.  I'm sure parking will be tight, so please plan to walk to the event in case you need to park off campus.  

Just a reminder that next month we have a couple of days off for Fall Break and a half day on 10/28 when students will be dismissed at 12:30.  We are planning on having our Fall Celebrations and Costume Parade that day so please watch for info from your homeroom teachers on this special day.  

PTA Pumpkin sales end Monday.  Please be sure to sell some pumpkins and turn in the form Monday.  Events like our Fall Festival are offered for free because of the fundraising that the PTA does so please help support them. 

Remember that we are looking for a minority SBDM member.  Please see the info below that was put in the blog last week for specifics and email me if interested!

BCEA is hosting a food drive.  Information will be send out from the district also but I wanted to let you know we are collecting at Yealey if you're interested in participating. 

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Mrs. Turner

 Yealey Families,

We packed in lots of fun in our four days!  Thanks to everyone who supported Kona Ice.  We use the money raised from this to help with different projects around the school.  Also, don't forget to check out the PTA page for opportunities to support our Fall Festival next Friday!

Just a reminder on our dress code. I ask that parents just send students in clothes that are comfortable for an active day at school.  Remember that even on days without PE class, students will probably be outside running and playing.  So, flip flops and sandals aren't always the safest option.  

We are looking for a SBDM minority member.  Kentucky Dept. of Education defines this as 

"Minority: American Indian; Alaskan native; African-American; Hispanic, including persons of Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, and Central or South American origin; Pacific Islander; or other ethnic group underrepresented in the school."

If you identify as any of these categories and would be interested in serving as our council's minority member, please email Amy Roedersheimer, our SBDM secretary at amy.roedersheimer@boone.kyschools.us .  We would love to have you join us!

I hope everyone enjoys the weekend! 

See you on Monday,

Mrs. Turner

 Yealey Families,

I hope everyone had a good week at home.  It's been great here.  Our after school clubs have kicked off this week and it's been great to see so many students participating!  We also did our Fall STAR testing this week so we have reading and math scores for students to grow from.  

Just a few reminders on morning drop off.  Please pull into the lot and get in line to drop off your child to Mr. Jim, Officer Amy, and Mr. Rice.  Students should enter the gym/cafeteria doors.  There are staff available in the building to help students get to their classrooms and get breakfast if they want it.  Parent drop off students do not enter the same place as the buses unload.  We need to keep the lane in front of the library open for our buses to line up and release from.  If you have any questions about the process, please just ask.  We just want to make sure students are safe from moving traffic and going into areas with adults ready to assist them. Thank you!

Please see the PTA page of the blog for important information about upcoming events and be sure to check it regularly to stay up to date.

We still have 11 yearbooks for sale from last year.  If you'd like one please contact the office. 

Remember there is NO SCHOOL on MONDAY.  I hope everyone enjoys their 3 day weekend and I will see all my Bobcats back at school on Tuesday!

Mrs. Turner
