Hello YGS Families,
Today was the last day of 2020!!! Here's a recap:

Author Alan Silberberg Zoomed on Thursday to share his book, "Meet the Latkes."

Makerspace Challenge: Students enjoyed a Kwanza themed challenge this week!

NWEA MAP: Students finished winter benchmark testing! Progress will be shared in the near future.

Spirit Week was the perfect way to close out the first half of the school year!

The staff enjoyed a lovely luncheon. Thanks for all the ways you've showed your support for us at YGS. The students ended the day with a festive party with craft kits!

We sincerely hope you enjoy the magic of the holiday with your family! We look forward to seeing your child in 2021!

Warmly,
Emily Lech, YGS Principal
