The staff of Yerington Elementary School believes the primary purpose of our school is student learning. We believe that all students can learn and achieve basic grade level skills, regardless of their previous academic performance, family background, disability, socioeconomic status, ethnicity, and/or gender. The staff, working as a team, in partnership with families and the community, will provide students fundamental information and skills necessary to achieve academic success in a safe, caring environment. We accept the responsibility to use effective strategies so all students can become successful in our school and productive citizens in our society.
