YMS Wins its First Award

We haven’t even broken ground yet, but the new Yelm Middle School is already earning high honors

A big congratulations to the industrious YMS students who crafted a gingerbread model of the new school we’re working on for them, and earned first place in the Gingerbread Decorating contest at Yelm’s annual Christmas in the Park celebration.

You can read all about these creative students and their award-winning efforts in this great piece in the Nisqually Valley News — and stay tuned as we build our own version of the new Yelm Middle School in 2020, it’ll be a little less sweet, but much more durable over the long term.
