Neighborhoods and Homes nearYates Elementary School

I think that Yates is an excellent school. My daughter ws hesitant to go as it was new to her as we moved from where she went last year and was afraid of not knowing anyone.

Pretty run down, have to cross a major road to get to the play ground. Has good teachers though, ok, but not my first choice.

Yate is a community alert school very aware of the culture of the neighborhood its located in. The staff is a group of very involved individuals with a high commitment to the overall success of the individual students.

My daughter went to Yates for 4th and 5th grade. We thought the teachers really went out of their way to tend to the students' needs, addressing both their strengths and weaknesses. The music program was great with several programs each year.

Our son was at Yates for a short time, but we found the administation members to be informed, helpful and caring. After we informed them of his special needs, they 'streamlined' the evaluation process and were invaluable in helping to formulate his IEP.
