If you still are seeking information on the bond project, I encourage you to visit our website: https://yorkdukesbond.com/ On our website, you can see the financial impact this bond will have, see potential plans and design, as well as visit our FAQ page to get the answers to many questions that have been asked. If you have further questions, please reach out, and I am happy to answer any question I can.

York Elementary School is a special place, and will continue to be a special place no matter the results of this election. We strive to provide a quality educational experience for your student through hands-on experiences, quality instruction, and a strong partnership with our families.

On Monday, November 11th, 4th and 5th Grade students will travel to YHS to attend the Salute to Veterans program. This program is open to the community to help us honor our local veterans. Parents are invited to attend. The program will be put on by YPS students. Each year, students at York Elementary School have a chance to honor a Veteran in their lives. Students were sent home with a Veterans Pennant. Please fill out the information and return it to school by Monday, November 4th.

-Attached is a document of what they look like. If you need another one, please feel free to print.

Today is the perfect day to start setting goals! It is important for every student to set goals and consider further education or training after high school. This is the underlying philosophy behind "College & Career Day" at York Elementary School. The staff members of Y.E.S. will focus on sharing their excitement for the future, higher education, and making college and post-high school training more familiar and accessible to students. By thinking about education and training beyond elementary school, students can better understand how what they learn in the classroom can be applied in the real world.

Setting goals and dreaming big can be further encouraged by Career Day, which gives students an opportunity to explore various career paths and learn how their education can lead to career success. During this event, community members and leaders share insights about their career and details about the necessary education and training required for career success.

The Lost and Found is full at York Elementary School! If your child is missing anything, please have them check the lost and found. It is starting to get colder out and we have many coats! After the first semester, the lost and found will be cleaned out and items will be donated.

Reminder, the school doors will not open until 7:30 a.m.

As the weather changes, please make sure to send students with heavier coats, hats, and gloves. We will continue to walk outside in the morning and have recess outside if the temperature is above 10 degrees.
