🔔Attention Nassau County School District parents!
This is just a friendly reminder that early dismissal takes place every Wednesday. Please make sure to check the dismissal times for your student by visiting https://www.nassau.k12.fl.us/studentsandparents
If you have any questions, please reach out to your child's school.
Last week during orientation, students and families got a warm welcome—but Mrs. Zavala took it to the next level! Stepping into her black-lit science classroom felt like entering a mystery lab. She created an interactive game where guests had to find clues, report their findings, and claim a prize if they cracked the code. It was science, engagement, and fun all rolled into one unforgettable experience.
This is just one example of how Mrs. Zavala brings her passion for science to life every single day. Her creativity and commitment to student engagement are truly over-the-top—and we’re beyond lucky to have her on our team.
We can’t wait to see what she dreams up next! 🚀🧪💡
We’re excited to remind you about the Here Comes the Bus (HCTB) app, an easy-to-use tool that allows you to see the location of your child’s school bus right from your smartphone, tablet, or computer! This app helps you know when the bus is near your stop so you can send your child out at the right time.
More Information: https://www.nassau.k12.fl.us/HereComesTheBus
We also ask for your patience during these first few weeks as our little learners are getting used to riding the bus.
Thank you for your understanding and support!

We want to give a HUGE thank you to Exchange Church for blessing our staff with their time and an incredible breakfast spread—delicious casseroles, Chick-Fil-A, fresh fruit, baked goods, and coffee that hit the spot! ☕🍳🍓🥐
But more than the food, we’re grateful for their time, their uplifting spirits, and the positive energy they bring every time they step on our campus. They always give us a little energy boost and remind us of all the amazing support we have in our Yulee community. 💛🐝
We are so thankful for Exchange Church and for all the ways our community shows up for our school. Your kindness does not go unnoticed—and it means more than you know!
