Welcome 2017-2018 School Year

It has been an adventurous beginning to this school year. Hurricane Harvey really made an impact to Texas. Thankfully, our library was spared any damage.

We are celebrating October with our Saddle Up and Read Book Fair. You can shop online @ https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bookfairs/cptoolkit/homepage.do?method=homepage&url=youngbloodintermediateschool

We are also supporting Red Ribbon Week with our community service project, Wash Away Drugs, by collecting hygiene items for our local shelter, The House of Amos.

Thank you for supporting our school!
