Back to School Celebration ??

YPS is having a wonderful summer. We have lots of awesome academic programming offered through July 11th, a free lunch program offered through July 31st, professional development opportunities available for staff each Wednesday, etc. "Summer" is a very busy time and we're making the most of it to make our school district a better place.

We are kicking around the idea of collaborating with the YPS Foundation to put on a "Back to School Celebration and Community Pep Rally" on Tuesday, August 19th at East Hill Park. We're not sure if we're going to be able to pull this off but we're trying to make some tentative plans in the meantime. We're envisioning an ice cream social, inflatable fun for kids, music, stations to join the fine arts and athletic booster clubs, buy York Duke apparel, etc. We'd then move into the football stadium for a pep rally to recognize all of our fall activities, as well as students at YES, YMS, Emmanuel, and St. Joseph's.

If you have any thoughts one way or the other on this possibility, please let me know.

GO DUKES!
