Yankton Middle School

Beadle Elementary is collecting photos to celebrate Beadle’s 100th birthday. We are very interested in any photographs from the earlier years of Beadle School, but we will accept photographs from all years. The photos will be used for a slide show of Beadle’s history next fall, when we have an Open House on Sept. 22, 2026. We invite you to upload photos to the link provided. For those not able to upload, they can bring their photos to Beadle, and we will upload them for you. We encourage former staff or family of former staff members to upload a staff photo, including the years they worked at Beadle. Thank you for your submissions and for helping celebrate Beadle’s history. They can be uploaded at this link: https://bit.ly/4uk4ov9

Responsibility, Trustworthiness, Respect, Honesty, Self-Control, Being Helpful & Kind. These are all traits we hope our students will display while at YMS. We are honored to recognize these 3 "Special Someones" this week!

We are growing good deeds and springing into positive actions here at YMS!
We are thankful for and proud of these young women!

Yankton Middle School did it again, they won the state Science Olympiad tournament today and are heading to the National Tournament at the University of Southern California in LA, California!! Thank you to everyone who has supported the team!

Great shot! Take a look at these archery students at YMS!

Check out the peeps who hopped on into the office to receive their Special Someone awards this week! Hip-hop hooray to these egg-stra specail some-bunnies!

Warmer weather and time spent outdoors allows us to slow down and notice the good! These students are spreading sunshine and good vibes through YMS this week!

We only have a few weeks left of Special Someones before the end of the school year. Please congratulate these students for being kind, respectful and great helpers at YMS.

Congratulations to these Middle School All State Band Members who performed at Mitchell Performing Arts Center over the weekend with a fantastic concert!

These young women are inspiring others at YMS to make a difference. They are challenging norms and teaching others that kindness truly does matter!

The 7th Grade Boys Bucks Basketball season has finally wrapped up. The three teams combined to go 30 - 10! Red team led the way with a 13 - 1 record, White went 12 - 2, and Black went 5 - 7, but competed throughout. The team grew, fought through adversity at times, and most importantly, had fun together. Bright future with this group!

Congrats to these YMS students who were selected as our "Special Someones" this week!
