The Importance of Support Staff

YPS is fortunate to have an outstanding teaching faculty. We employ highly dedicated and skilled teachers across the PreK-12 curriculum. An important group of school district employees that often get overlooked are our "support staff." These secretaries, drivers, cooks, paras, custodians, nurses, and "other" are critical to the success of your organization.

Our custodians create and maintain a safe and clean learning environment. Our secretaries help set the tone in each building with their efficiency, friendliness, and organizational skills. Drivers are the first and last YPS face our students see every day and they often drive very cautiously and skillfully through tough weather conditions. Our cooks often prepare the best and most nutritious meals that many of our students will have on a daily basis. Our paras are on the front lines with our students helping them improve their academic performance. They often work with high needs children and excel in what they do. Our nurses become more and more important each year with records, wellness checks, and day-to-day work with students that have special needs.

Here's a BIG TIME salute to our support staff!
