UIL Day 1 = Success!
We couldn’t be prouder of our students for their dedication, hard work, and the way they represented Young at the UIL competition! Their commitment to excellence and teamwork truly shined, and we are beyond grateful for their efforts.
A huge thank you to our amazing coaches, teachers, and families for supporting them every step of the way. Way to go, team!










Nothing like some hoops with Officer Trejo! 🏀🚔 The 2nd graders had a blast shooting around and learning some skills. Thanks to Officer Trejo for bringing the fun and showing the kids how it's done!

Your generous support gives hope to families like Seeley’s, and for that, we are endlessly grateful.
Let’s keep making a difference together!




Young Elementary’s Kids Heart Challenge program is quackin'! We can't wait for you and your student to learn some of these amazing heart-healthy habits and lifesaving skills! Our goal is to raise $20,000.00 for the American Heart Association and for all families to learn Hands-Only CPR!
This year, Young’s Kids Heart Challenge is dedicated to our very own 1st grader, Seeley!
Kids Heart Challenge funds research that helps kids, like Seeley, have longer & stronger lives.
