Dear Parents and Students,

I would like to take this time to personally welcome you to Yucca Junior High School.
At Yucca we believe that academic success is a team effort which includes students, families, teachers and the total community. We believe that each student, with support from family, school and community, will demonstrate the six pillars of character to enhance their interpersonal and self-directional skills to further their education and career. We believe that each student will perform at or above grade level in all academic areas. We believe that each student will demonstrate reading and writing skills across the curriculum at or above grade level.

In addition to our strong academic program, we offer programs that enhance a student’s individual expression as well as teamwork. These programs include, Music, Art, Drama, Athletics, Student Council, FCCLA, National Junior Honor Society, Journalism, Creative Writers Club, Drill Team, Cheerleading, and Super Computing.

Parent participation is encouraged at Yucca Junior High. Please contact the school if you can volunteer in any capacity.

Please feel free to contact the school to speak to a teacher, the counselor or the principal if you have any questions or concerns. We are looking forward to a wonderful school year. Thank you for allowing us to be partners in the education of your student.

Mitzi Estes, Principal - EMAIL
