Transportation Details
For those who have registered their child for transportation services, you will receive a notification about their bus number, stop, and pick-up time approximately one week before classes commence, provided they are eligible for bus transportation. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our transportation department at 423-472-9576.

PowerSchool
We encourage all our families to use PowerSchool, a powerful tool that allows you to access essential information about your child's schedules, grades, and attendance. Class placements for students at Yates Primary School will be mailed out on Monday, July 17th.

Additional Information
We are excited to announce that all students will receive breakfast and lunch free of charge, ensuring they have the nourishment they need for a productive day of learning.

Lastly, we want to remind parents that students arriving after 8:30 AM will be considered tardy and must be checked in by our office staff.

We are looking forward to an exceptional school year at Yates Primary School and cannot wait to welcome all of you! If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out to us. Let's make this year an unforgettable learning journey for our students with the support of Assistant Principal Melissa Bishop and our dedicated staff!
