Dear Toro Families,

Time flies when you're having fun! Hard to believe that this is the last Toro Times of 2024. We've had such a fantastic first half of this year and know that our Toros will be ready to go even further when we return from break.

This week we have some great events to culminate hard work this far. WInter Concerts will be held on Tuesday and Thursday, we hope you'll join us.

Students will get to have some fun and a chance to win gift cards for completing the Gingerbread Run on 12/18 and celebrate our VAPA students as they have an assembly for the school on 12/20.

Wishing all of our Toro families all of the joys of the season, Happy Holidays & Happy New Year. We look forward to welcoming back our Toros on Monday, January 13, 2025!

With Toro Tenacity,

Dr. Mónica Luther

Principal

Yorba Middle School

To continue fostering a College and Career atmosphere during middle School, Yorba Middle School students and staff participate in College Shirt Wednesdays! (including AVID & Military branch shirts).

Thank you for reviewing our school's Cell Phone and Dress Code policies with your student.

We appreciate your support to ensure we are prioritizing an academic and healthy social emotional environment for our students.

Student cell phones are allowed, but must be kept off in and in the backpack at all times. Should a parent or guardian need to contact a student during the school day, they can do so by contacting the main office. Students also have access to the office phones as needed. Students violating the cell phone policy will have their phones confiscated. In the event a student’s cell phone is confiscated, it will be held in the attendance office and must be picked up by the student’s parent or guardian. LOST or STOLEN personal items are NOT the responsibility of the school to locate or replace.

School Uniforms and PE Clothes are available for purchase in the front office.

Further Information can be found in our student handbook, linked above.
