Our Family Association enhances the work of the teachers and staff at B. Young School.  We provide the staff and our children with special events and support where it is needed.  Below you will find a list of some of the events we sponsor and organize.

2nd Grade Celebration
As the 2nd graders are preparing to move forward to their new school, we have several special activities to celebrate their accomplishments

Adopt-A-Classroom
We have adopted each teacher’s classroom with $50 into their account to purchase supplies. Individual families can also adopt a classroom @ www.adoptaclassroom.com.

Beautification
We enhance our school appearance with several different projects showcased in the school hallways such as Helping Hands and the Tile Project.  We host a fall and spring clean up of the school grounds.

Family Fun Nights
We provide 3 family fun nights:  a movie night, a game night and an educational night.

Folders
The YSFA and the Burlington Twp. Emergency Management Agencies provide folders for the children at the beginning of the school year.

Fun Day
This is a two-day event in June that includes activities, snacks, and most of all FUN for the kids!

Kindergarten Aides
We will be looking for helpers to volunteer on a weekly basis to come into the Kindergarten classrooms and assist the teacher as needed.  Please look for additional information to come home in your child’s folder.

Teacher Appreciation
To show our teachers and staff how much we appreciate their hard work, the YSFA provides a Welcome Back Luncheon in September, as well as organizing the Teacher Appreciation Dinner in the spring.

Young Gardens
We obtained recognition from the National Wildlife Foundation for our Young Garden in the courtyard of the school.  Several maintenance days are scheduled in the summer, spring and fall as families gather to help keep the extended learning garden beautiful.

Yearbook
The YFSA creates a memorable yearbook capturing the children at their finest.  Yearbooks can be ordered in the spring.  We are always in need of pictures of the students and events to showcase in the yearbook.

Boxtops & Campbell’s UPC Label
One of our year-round fundraisers is the “Race for Rewards”.  Send in your Boxtops for Education, and the YSFA will earn money.  Boxtops donate 10¢ per boxtop.  Campbell’s labels are cashed in for products used in the classrooms.

Book Fair
We all know how important reading is, so we sponsor two book fairs each year, one in the fall and one in the spring.  Children are able to shop for books with their class, as well as with their parents at the evening fairs.  Our district administrators and Young School teachers are Guest Readers at the Fair.  Free refreshments and baked goods are available during our evening fairs.

Family Social Night
Take a break…and meet friends for a Family Night Out at a local restaurant.  The YSFA will receive a percentage of sales from the participating restaurant.  Look for the flyer to come home in your child’s folder with the details.

Holiday Shop
Children are able to shop for special gifts with their class, as well as with their parents at the evening shop.  This event is scheduled for the first full week in December.

Spirit Wear
Orders are taken for Burlington Township clothing year round.  Show your school spirit by wearing our school colors!  And, the children can wear their Spirit Wear to school every Friday!

KidStuff Coupon Books
These coupon books offer great shopping coupons, as well as activities the whole family will enjoy.  Look for information on KidStuff in November.

Raffles
This winter we will have raffles to correspond with our Mom’s Night Out and Movie Night. 

In order to provide all of these great things to the school and our students, we need to conduct fundraisers.  We appreciate your help in these efforts. Please feel free to contact our board members if you have any questions.
