Week of August 19, 2024
A Quick Note From Mrs. Dale
It was WONDERFUL to see so many of our students and families at our Meet the Teacher events! We've spent the last few weeks preparing and we are all so excited to begin the 2024-2025 school year!
We look forward to welcoming your students to campus on Monday, August 19th! Our entire staff is committed to ensuring both academic and social growth for each member of our Yellowjacket Family!
Sincerely,
Kerri Dale
1st day of School
Information
We are excited to welcome our Yellowjackets to school! For the safety of all of our students, we do not allow parents to walk students to class including on the first day of school. We will have stations outside of the school to drop off school supplies, check transportation, lookup a homeroom assignment, etc. for families who were not able to attend Meet the Teacher. If you must visit Yeager on the first day of school, please anticipate long lines and understand that we do not make exceptions regarding walking students to class or meeting the teacher.
We will have staff members and volunteers assisting students to their classrooms, etc.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!
Lunch Visitors
Lunch visits will begin on September 16th. Students may have lunch visitor no more than one time per week. If you want someone other than a parent/guardian to visit for lunch, we must have a designee form on file (see registrar).
We do not have lunch visitors at the beginning of the year so that students can learn routines and procedures. We are not able to accept lunch drop-offs of fast food, etc. Parents may drop off forgotten lunch kits if necessary.
All students at Yeager are able to receive free breakfast and lunch.
Reminders
- Please keep ID badge on backpacks at all times; students use this to get breakfast and to swipe on and off the bus.
- Every visitor must check in with an ID at the front desk every time.
- All medication must be brought in by guardian to nurse's clinic.
- Class starts at 8:45am
