WILDCAT WEEKLY

VOLUME 3  ISSUE 7

September 8, 2023

From the Office


It has been another amazing week here at YMLA!  As we finish out the fourth week of school, we encourage each of you to sit with your scholar to review his grades in Focus this weekend.  Having a strong start to the school year will set your scholar on the path to success for the remainder of the year.  If your scholar has missing assignments or grades that the can be improved (please check with a teacher before redoing an assignment), please help him get back on track.  If you have any questions or need any support, please reach out.




Congratulations Brother Bivens!


Thank you to Darryl and Lydia Dunnington and the Dunnington Family Charitable Fund for your support of YMLA and our YMLA scholars!
