Young Gazelles League game schedule! All games are at YMS north gym and start at 5:45pm. If you still don’t know your team we will help you figure that out on Tuesday!
All Yankton Public School students, including JrK-12th grade will be dismissed at 2:00 p.m. on Friday, September 24, for the Yankton High School Pioneer Days Homecoming Parade. There is no afternoon Preschool at Webster School or Early Childhood Preschool at Stewart School that day.
Bus students who ride Yankton School District buses will load the buses at 1:50 at their respective buildings. They will make the exchange at YMS and will leave YMS at approximately 2:15. Parents of elementary students may pick up their bus students at school at 2:00 p.m. if they are not riding the bus that day and have notified the school in advance.
Parents of JrK students at Webster should pick them up at school at 1:45 p.m., as they will be dismissed earlier due to traffic. Parents of in-town students should pick them up at school at 2:00 p.m. All elementary students should return the parade notice to their teacher, so plans are known for the early dismissal.
The parade will begin at 2:30 p.m. at Mulberry and 2nd Street, proceed west on 2nd Street to Cedar Street, North on Cedar Street to 3rd Street and East on 3rd Street to Burleigh Street. If inclement weather occurs, the parade will be cancelled but school will still be dismissed at 2:00 pm.
The Bucks & Gazelles soccer teams hit the road for ESD matchups with Huron. The Bucks look to continue their strong 6-1-1 start to the season as the Gazelles look to continue their recent 3-1-1 form. #WeAreYankton #Yankton Soccer
We are a few days late posting, but still important to thank the community for supporting Bucks and Gazelles soccer and for your canned good donations. We collected nearly 200lbs of canned goods during our Tuesday game vs Brandon Valley!!! Thank you! #WeAreYankton
