Thank you to Trail Life Troop AL- 0034 for doing a service project on the Yarbrough Nature Trail! They cleared debris off the trail and picked up garbage. We are so thankful! Next goal for the trail- take apart the outdoor classroom and rebuild a new one or fix the current one so the students of YES can fully enjoy our nature trail!

YES family, if you are going through carline on Thursday, we want to see your best Last Day of School car decorations!
