Yealey Families,

Just a couple of reminders today.  With weather turning colder please be sure to check the Boone County School website, Yealey's website, local news, and social media to be sure there is school.  Phone calls go out with that information but every year we find that there are numbers that have accidently opted out of receiving calls and then don't know until they miss something.  So, please just double check whenever you think there is a chance school could be on a delay or closed.

Next week we have school on Monday and Tuesday but are off Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday for the Thanksgiving holiday.  I hope that you will have the chance to spend time with those you are closest to.  This is one of my favorite holidays.  Now that my kids are adults and all so busy the holiday gives us a chance to stop and just be thankful for each other.  I hope you get the chance to do the same.

Have a great weekend,

Mrs. Turner

 Yealey Families,

I hope you've had a great week at home.  It has been a fantastic week at school.  This week I've been able to see first grade students working on their sight words and reading informational texts.  I watched second graders work on vocabulary words and reviewed student work in fourth grade grammar.  It was a very busy week with lots of learning!

Thank you to everyone who volunteered to help with our K-2 dance this evening.  I'm sure it will be a very fun event.  

We are still looking for a minority SBDM member.  If you are interested, please email amy.roedersheimer@boone.kyschools.us .  

As a reminder, with cold weather approaching, it is good to get in the habit of checking your phone, social media, and our Boone County School website if inclement weather is predicted.  

I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Mrs. Turner

 Yealey Families,

What a great short week we've had!  Thank you to all the parents who came on Monday for student led conferences.  I hope you had a great experience hearing your child describe their school goals and plans.  I am sorry for the amount of construction that was happening during that time. There was a miscommunication among the construction crew about the event and more people than expected showed up to work.  In an effort not to get behind and keep us on track for the project, we went ahead and let them work.  But I was not happy with the amount of mess that caused and I apologize for that.

Thank you also to all our Veterans who came in today for our yearly celebration. Also, a big shout out to Mrs. Brown, Mr. Dunlap, and our chorus for putting together a very heartwarming show.  

We are still looking for a minority SBDM council member.  If you qualify as a minority and would like to serve on the council, please email amy.roedersheimer@boone.kyschools.us 

I hope you all have a great weekend,

Mrs. Turner

Yealey Families,

I hope everyone enjoyed Halloween and the end of October.  It was a very nice costume parade today.  Thank you to everyone who came out to see all our creative kids and their costumes.

Monday is our student led conference day starting at 12:00.  Parents or Legal Guardians should have signed up for a slot with the teacher.  Our Kindergarten and 1st grade conferences will be held in our new classrooms which are being finished as I type this!  So, they may not be decorated and completely put together but we are very excited to show off the new rooms and all the hard work that has gone into phase 1 of this project.

There is no school on Monday or Tuesday.  Picture make up day is Thursday, November 7th.  

I hope everyone enjoys the long weekend!

Mrs. Turner
