Happy Thanksgiving,
The holiday season is again upon us. There are many reasons for all of the Yelle Elementary School family to be thankful this season. We have once again come together to support members of our community. Last week we had a Hat Day to help raise funds to support one of our families who suffered through a recent house fire. The Yelle school community raised over $400.00 which was donated to the family, so that they may start to replace some of their personal belongings.
The Helping Hands group also donated many cases of can goods which will be delivered to the Norton Food Pantry. This group of 4th and 5th graders give of their time after school to help the community. During the holiday season they will continue their giving by creating over 40 gift baskets to donate to a local nursing home.
In closing I would like to say that I am very thankful to be working with such a caring and wonderful group of students, staff and parent group. I hope that each of you enjoys the Holiday Season!
Lisa Farrell
