Thank you YMS SRO, Officer Olson, for visiting Mrs. Blaha's 8th grade social studies classes! Students asked him questions about their rights as students and citizens, and about his career as a police officer. We appreciate your time and commitment to the school district. 🚔

🇺🇸 Happy Constitution Day! 🇺🇸 The U.S. constitution was signed on September 17, 1787 Today our YMS students took some time to learn about the U.S. Constitution and why this document has played such an important role in our nation’s history. From discussing the freedoms and responsibilities it outlines to thinking about how it continues to shape our government today, our students were engaged, curious, and ready to share their ideas. We’re proud of the thoughtful conversations happening in our aYMS social studies classrooms! 📚🇺🇸
