Yale Bulldog track and field had an exceptional day at the OSSAA class A regional track meet at Jay, Oklahoma. Several Bulldogs qualified to compete at the State Championship this weekend and 2 Lady Bulldogs earned Regional Championships.
Addy Skinner qualified for State in all 4 of her events: She was the Regional Champion in the 100-meter dash, 4th in the 100 hurdles, and 4th in the 200-meter dash.
Kaybra Prather qualified for State in 3 events: She is the Regional Champion in High Jump, placed 5th in the 200-meter dash, and narrowly missed qualifying for State with a 6th place finish in the 400-meter dash.
Joining Addy and Kaybra, Karis Mueggenborg and Emma Elliott form a State Qualifying 4x100 relay team, which finished in 2nd place. Tatum Kennedy and Jaelynn Escamilla will serve as alternates at the upcoming State Championships.
The Lady Bulldogs set 7 new personal bests, 11 top 10 finishes, and ten medalists, leading the way for a finish of 6th out of 42 attending class A schools.
Additionally, Karis Mueggenborg tied for 5th in high jump and placed 6th in the 300-meter hurdles. Jaelynn Escamilla tied for 5th in high jump.
Way to go Bulldogs! We are Proud of you!

Yesterday was a wonderful experience for our middle school students! 🚛✨
We had a special guest instructor from Central Tech visit to talk about careers in truck driving and what it takes to become a professional over-the-road driver. Students learned about training, life on the road, and the important role truck drivers play in keeping our country moving.
The highlight of the day? Getting up close with a real semi-truck! Students had the chance to climb inside, explore the cab, and see what it’s like to live and work on the road. From the driver’s seat to the sleeper area, they got a firsthand look at whether life as a trucker might be right for them.
A huge thank you to our guest Jessica Rouintree for bringing this experience to life and inspiring our students to think about future career possibilities in a whole new way! 👏

Our Kindergarten students have been busy learning all about the life cycle of chickens!
Students carefully observed the eggs each day, waiting and watching as the chicks developed inside. When hatching time arrived, they watched the process as the chicks began to pip and slowly work their way out.
Once the chicks arrived, students took responsibility of caring for them: helping with feeding, making sure they stayed warm under the heat lamp, and keeping their space clean and safe.
Hands-on learning like this brings science to life in the most meaningful way.
