Principal's Message
Good Evening Yowell Families,
Believe it or not but we have seven school days between now and the Thanksgiving break! Look for student interims to come home in your child's Tuesday folder. Speaking of Tuesday, this is a reminder that Sports Club has ended for the fall session and will start again in February.
The holidays are approaching. If your family is in NEED of the holiday assistance program or if you or your family would like to DONATE to the holiday assistance program, please click here and complete the forms by November 15, 2023.
We ask the Yowell student body to dress in blue this Tuesday for Diabetes Awareness Day.
Lastly be sure to check out our weekly newsletter for a link for CCPS students and staff to sign-up for two free UVA vs Duke tickets for this weekend's football game. Additional tickets are $10 each. In the newsletter you will also find the lunch menu, resource days and so much more.
