Learning Area Conferences, Athletic update, Winter Sports Night info

Hello YHS Community,

 We are approaching the end of our first quarter and things are certainly moving fast at YHS! From field trips to pumpkin carving to a successful fall sports season, great things are happening in Clippertown. There is a lot of information contained in this newsletter about upcoming events and opportunities; if you have any questions please feel free to contact us.  

Learning Area Conferences will be held on November 6th and 8th.  Individual appointments are not made ahead of time; these conferences take place in the cafeteria or gym where teachers provide quick updates (approximately 5 minutes) of your child’s progress.  Our student ambassadors will be on site to help. Please note: 

  • If your child’s last name begins with A-K, conferences will be held from 3:30-6:30 pm on Monday, November 6th.  
  • If your child’s last name begins with L-Z, conferences will be held from 3:30-6:30 pm on Wednesday, November 8th.    

Furthermore, our part-time teacher David Pearl will be available on Monday and Julia Balsamo  will be available on Wednesday only.   If you are in need of a different time for the conference, please contact your child’s teacher.
