Over the Halloween weekend, many of our outstanding YHS musicians took part in South Dakota's All State Choir and Orchestra concert. These students in band, choir, or orchestra auditioned and were selected to be among the best of the best in our state! Over 100 instrumentalists and around 1,000 vocalists filled the Denny Sanford Premiere Center on Saturday with professional-grade music.

Congrats, musicians! We're very proud of you!

YSD 150th Anniversary

As we reflect on Native American Day, we’re reminded of the meaningful Wacipi celebrations held at YMS. These special days provided students with the opportunity to explore Native American history, traditions, and contributions through lessons that connected to their classroom studies. Guest speakers and dancers shared their knowledge and talents, helping students gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of Native American culture. In the evening, students and their families came together again to take part in the Wacipi and share a meal—a beautiful celebration of learning, community, and respect.
