YCSD Celebrates 2024 Tenure Recipients

Let's have a round of applause for our amazing tenure recipients!

We are excited to announce that 17 of our exceptional educators were granted tenure at the May 13 Board of Education meeting. These dedicated individuals have demonstrated unwavering commitment to their profession and actively integrated themselves into the school community.

The District’s tenure process involves a rigorous probationary period, during which candidates undergo a dozen formal observations and numerous informal check-ins. However, the impact of these educators extends far beyond the classroom. They have become beloved members of our school community, eagerly assuming roles that go beyond their initial responsibilities.

Congratulations to the recipients and thank you to Mr. Childers and the MESMS band for their wonderful performance!
