Open House

Have you heard of our annual Open House? It is fast approaching! On Thursday, September 24th, starting at 5:30, there will be a barbecue and open classrooms (they will open @ 6pm) to give you information about what your child is learning about this year. There is always great information given by staff and plenty of volunteer opportunities, like holiday parties and classroom reading!

Look for the PTO table we will be there to answer any of your questions, set you up to donate (credit cards are now accepted), and to sign you up for the day of walkathon volunteer positions.

We are looking forward to your Superkids helping fund the next great addition to our school. Have any great ideas? Be sure to come to our PTO Board Meeting on Thursday October 1st at 6pm. We love to have all of your precious feedback!

We’re all Superheroes now!

Walkathon Kickoff was today! The kids learned that they too will be superheroes for this walkathon. For all the students that can bring in $10 dollars they will go home on walkathon day with superhero capes and awesome water bottles! And again, like last year, a total of $50 in donations gives them a ticket for the prize raffles!

YCES has only one fundraiser a year and this money goes towards the budget for the Yamhill Carlton Parent Teacher Organization (YCPTO). YCPTO supports our students and school in many ways through your generous contributions. Some of the money goes toward annual expenses including field trips and assemblies, teachers purchases, library books, the Spring Carnival, and the Mad Science Fair. Our monies are also used for larger purchases like the new water fountain/filling station, for classroom technology (iPads), playground equipment and upkeep, and more!

We look forward to what our superheroes can do for our school. Thanks in advance for your support!! Check out the walkathon tab above for an easy way to donate!

Nana nana nana nana… Batman!

If you’ve turned in your background checks please feel free to come kick off the walkathon tomorrow at 2pm. We have some awesome plans in the kid's future!
