Principal's Message
Good evening, Yowell families.
It was so much fun to feel the energy throughout our building on Friday as students enjoyed dressing up with their friends! There was excitement everywhere. We hope this was one more core memory made at Yowell and one of those simple, happy moments from childhood that our students will remember for years to come.
Tomorrow, Monday, November 2, is Picture Make-Up Day and our new Class Picture Day. All classes will have their group pictures retaken, and students who missed the original picture day or need an individual retake will also have their pictures taken. Please help your child come to school picture-ready and wearing a big smile!
There will be no school for students on Tuesday, November 3, because several CCPS schools serve as polling locations.
Our third graders have field trips planned for Wednesday and Thursday, and we will end the week with our school spelling bee on Friday.
Have an amazing evening!
Mrs. Fiscus
Get those smiles ready! Monday, November 2nd, is Picture Make-Up Day AND Class Picture Day!
As you may know, we were not pleased with the quality of our original class pictures. Our students and staff deserve better, so we asked the photography company to come back and give us another shot with the whole group (pun intended! ).
On Monday, November 2nd:
Class Pictures: All classes will have their group pictures retaken.
Individual Make-Up Pictures: Students who missed the original picture day or need a retake will have the opportunity to have their pictures taken.
We want everyone included in these special keepsakes, so please make every effort to be at school on Monday, dressed for pictures and with a BIG smile on your face!
Thank you for your flexibility as we work to make sure our Yowell Stallions are picture-perfect! See you Monday, smiles and all!

Transportation Information
In an effort to assist schools and parents with current information about bus changes, transportation has added a new item on their website called: Transportation - Morning Update. The direct link can be found here. Also, this is the direct link to transportation.
Parents of students Pre-K through Grade 3 are expected to meet their children at the bus stop. Failure to do so will result in the child(ren) being returned to school. Should you choose to allow your child(ren) to be dropped off without supervision in the afternoon, please fill out and return this document.
We will be posting departure times for buses each day to assist parents with receiving their child from the bus stop. Please check this document each afternoon.
If your student requires transportation assistance, call the Transportation Department at 540-825-5446 or email them at transportation@ccpsweb.org
School Resource Officer (SRO)
