We’ve had a wonderful experience at Yates Mill. From the administration to the teachers, everyone is warm, welcoming and extremely well qualified. Our children have received an exceptional education and there are many opportunities for families to get involved.

We had a great kindergarten year! Our teacher really taught so much to our daughter- she was very knowledgeable about new changes in teaching reading, even from the last 3-5 years. I felt like we had good communication from the various groups (teacher, administrators, and PTA).
