Mrs. Kroll and Mrs. Painter would like to thank the Loterbauer family for donating a pumpkin to every 1st grade student! This week the students learned all about pumpkins and tasted items made of pumpkin. They have a class pumpkin named "Frank." The class voted on how to carve him and will watch what happens to "Frank" for the next month. They made predictions on whether the pumpkins would sink or float. Lastly, they estimated on how many blocks tall it would be and the circumference of the pumpkin. So much pumpkin fun!
Ambulance was called to the HS. The student’s parents have been notified.
PAWS-itivity Awards! 🍂
The state department of education has joined with the health department to make some additional funding available to school districts. However, one of the requirements to qualify for the funding is for schools to agree to Covid test 10% of their student enrollment each month of the school year. For Yale, this would be about 40 kids each month, and we could receive $50,000 in funding to purchase things to help with the spread of Covid.
Parents would have to opted-in to allow their child to be tested. Students must be at least 12 years old to self-administer the Covid test monthly.
A survey can be found on the Yale Schools Facebook page. The survey is only to see if we would have enough parents interested to pursue the additional funding. Completing the survey is not any type of commitment to participate. The survey only asks if you would be willing to allow your child to participate. If not interested, the survey does not need to be completed.
If you have questions, please call Coach Kennedy at 918-387-2118
Just a Reminder:
Let’s have a spirited week!! Be proud to be a Yale Bulldog!!
Due to the recent hurricanes, bottled water has come into short supply. This short supply has impacted our cafeteria. Water will not be offered as part of the lunch menu this week. Students will still have milk and juice as an option.
Unfortunately volleyball season came to close this evening with a 3-0 loss to Claremore Sequoyah. I just wanted to say how proud I was of our team. They represented Yale very well with their effort and attitude. I am proud of you Lady Bulldogs!!

YPS Family,
The Yale School district could use your assistance. As many of you are aware, the district receives state and federal funding based off of our free and reduced lunch count forms. Even though all students are receiving free meals this year, it is very important that we receive a completed lunch form from as many families as possible. Please take a few moments to fill out the form and return it to the school by Friday, October 1. Forms are available on the school website. www.yale.k12.ok.us
Tomorrow during flex period the junior high and high school will hold class meetings to discuss homecoming plans, vote on class officers, and vote on homecoming attendants.
YPS is experiencing some issues with the phone system. If you need to reach someone, please email jcrowe@yale.k12.ok.us or helliott@yale.k12.ok.us Feel free to stop by the main office at each building for any questions or concerns.
YPS Family,
The faculty and staff are excited to have our students back in regular classes tomorrow morning. We appreciate everyones efforts and patience with distance learning.
We would like to ask everyone that has a chromebook or other device checked out to plan on returning those to the main offices tomorrow.
We would also like to encourage all students, staff, and visitors to wear a mask when entering the school buildings.
We look forward to seeing our students in the morning.
Thank you,
Coach Kennedy
Just a reminder, cheer camp has been rescheduled for Oct. 25-Oct 27 and will perform on Friday, Oct. 29. Please see attached flyer for more information!
