2024 Spring Scholastic Book Fair
The Book Fair will officially be running during entire week of February 5th-9th and we need volunteers...we need YOU! Volunteering at the Book Fair is the perfect way to stay connected to your child at school and help students find the books they can't wait to read. Plus, volunteers receive a 10% discount on purchases made at the fair. Sign up now and get ready for a fun and rewarding volunteer experience.
This is an awesome outlet for Dads to volunteer at as well especially on the days we set up and tear down the book fair. We will have an AM shift (9-12:30) and a PM shift (12:30-4:00). Any and all help is greatly appreciated!
If you are available to help in more than one slot we would love to have you more than one time. This is one of the student's favorite activities during the year. We are better together.
Click here to sign up to help us out!
The Book Fair will be going on during STEAM Night (February 6th) as well! Come find some great books to add to your home library for your students!
Your student will have the opportunity to browse a wide variety of books and other items available for purchase with proceeds benefiting our campus library. Participation is optional. Please discuss your expectations for purchases with your student before their visit to the fair. Scholastic will be sending materials recommended for students in PK - 5th grade. If your student purchases a book that does not meet your discussed expectations, please email traci.melly@cfisd.net before February 9th, 2024 to exchange or refund the item. Students who have been opted out of library services in the parent portal will not attend the book fair. If you have any questions about the book fair, please contact our campus librarian, and thank you for supporting our library.

Student Check-out
Thank you for understanding and for your support, this helps our staff ensure that we are able to dismiss our students safely and efficiently every day.
Tardy- don't be late!
At 8:45am we begin our morning announcements and our staff members on car rider duty need to go inside to report to their first-period classes. After this time, the adult will need to park their car and come inside to sign in their child.
We will start recording tardies on Tuesday, September 5th.
Yeager VIPS
Volunteers in Public Schools (VIPS) are an essential part of the learning community. All parents, grandparents, and even members of the community are invited to volunteer their time and talent at Yeager Elementary.
There are many different opportunities throughout the year for volunteers to make an impact. If you would like more information on how you can be involved, please send us an email at yeagervips@gmail.com.
Also, please create a Volunteer Portal Account so ALL your volunteer hours can be recorded. We’d like to honor a Yeager VIPS each month and ensure all our VIPS are invited to the annual CFISD VIPS Appreciation Luncheon.
Thank you and we look forward to seeing you on campus!
