Good evening, this is Mr. Byland with several announcements from East Yancey Middle School,
Our six graders will have a celebration on Tuesday evening during school.
On Wednesday, all 8th graders will be going to Mountain Heritage for a tour in the afternoon, as they prepare for registering for high school classes soon.
On Thursday evening, starting at 5pm, we will have a math and science night here at East Yancey. We will be dissecting squids and having fun with math.
On Friday, students will have clubs.
Parents, if you have a student that takes a routine medication and is attending the DC trip, you will need to speak with Nurse Hannah during school hours to obtain the correct paperwork and receive further instructions. Students that have registered a self-carry medication with Nurse Hannah at school are REQUIRED to bring their medication with them and must check it in with Mr. Byland the morning of departure. Students that fail to present their meds on or before the morning of departure are at risk of exclusion from the trip.
Sports Section:
The conference wrestling tournament will be at Mitchell on Saturday.
Thanks, and as always, GO PANTHERS!
