Our Team

The faculty and staff at Young Public School work as a team to provide a positive environment and a high-quality educational experience for every student. We are happy to discuss your concerns and address individual needs. Please contact any member of our team; we'd love to get to know you better.

Students, if you need extra help or clarification about an assignment, be sure to take advantage of your teacher’s open office hours from 3:00 to 4:00 p.m. each school day.
