Yamhill Carlton Intermediate School - May 2025

Message From Mrs. Dallas
May 2025
Dear Parents and Guardians,
As we move into May, I want to take a moment to reflect on the incredible progress our students have made this school year. It is hard to believe we are nearing the end of another school year!
May brings with it a sense of renewal and excitement as we prepare for various end-of-year activities, including assessments, field trips, and our promotion ceremony. These events not only showcase our students' hard work but also foster a sense of community and school spirit.
I encourage all our students to stay focused during this final stretch. It’s important to maintain our commitment to learning and to support one another as we finish strong.
Thank you to our dedicated staff and supportive families for your continued partnership. Together, we are making a difference in the lives of our students.
Warm regards,
Amanda Dallas
