From Coyle, in regard to the Thursday night football game:

We look forward to hosting you, your team, and your community Thursday evening.

We have designated the evening Langston Appreciation Night. Langston Universities Band will be on campus that evening and will be performing at half time. It is quite a show but it does dramatically increase attendance.

We charge $7 for admission but fans may purchase tickets online at our GoFan page for $6 ($5 ticket + $1 fee). I highly recommend this option. It saves a little money and gets them through the gate faster.

Staff Spotlight of the week, Emily Nickell! Join us in celebrating our wonderful staff!

Birthday: August 27th

Favorite Snack: Cheese Its

Favorite drink: Coffee, Coke Zero (really anything zero!)

Favorite sweet treat: gummies of all kinds

Hobbies: Reading

Fun fact about Emily: I won't start a book series unless all of them are published because I hate waiting for the next book to come out.

About Emily: "I have been in education for 18 years, with eleven of those spent in the classroom teaching everything from Kindergarten to high school. I’m about to begin my eighth year at Yale. My husband is also in education and serves as the superintendent at Olive Public Schools.

We have a sophomore son, Gavin, who attends Olive, twins, Rallie and Wes, who will be in seventh grade at Cushing Middle School, and Eisley, who will be starting sixth grade there as well. Outside of school, I’m a busy sports mom, cheering on my kids in softball, basketball, wrestling, football, cross country, and anything else they decide to try. I love reading, traveling with my family, and finding new coffee shops to try."

Yale Public Schools is excited to introduce Ryder — our new therapy dog!

Ryder will be on campus every day, working alongside handler, Mrs. Kennedy, and staff to support students who may be feeling upset, anxious, or struggling with their emotions.

Trained to greet with a friendly “hello,” offer comforting hugs, or serve as a patient reading buddy, Ryder loves kids and spreads joy wherever he goes.

He has earned his AKC Canine Good Citizen certification and successfully passed his therapy dog evaluation at Deer Creek Academy in Kentucky. He is now in the final stages of completing his Alliance of Therapy Dogs certification.

We are thrilled to welcome Ryder to our school family and look forward to the positive impact he will have on our students.🐾🐾

Yale Public Schools is looking forward to our first day of school tomorrow, August 13. The first bell rings at 7:40 and students should be in class by 7:45. 

We are asking all new students in grades 7-12 to report to the front office in the morning at 7:40 when the bell rings. You will be paired with a fellow student who will help you navigate your first day at YPS. We are glad you are a Bulldog!

In the morning, 5th and 6th grade will meet in the old gym at 7:40 to split them up between band and PE time. 

Students needing to see Mrs. Griffin will need to sign in on her appointment schedule, and she will call you down as she has time. 

Students/parents can locate class schedules in their student/parent portal. 

School dismisses at 2:50. 

Please add the Yale Schools app to your phone for school events, details, and information. 

YPS does have a no cell phone policy. 

We are looking forward to a great school year!!
