💙 YBR ANNUAL ALL-SCHOOL FIELD DAY! 💙

What an AMAZING day! 🎉 A huge THANK YOU to all of our Yellow Brick Road schools for joining us and making our first annual All-School Field Day such a fun and successful company event!

Seeing students, teachers, and leaders from across our YBR family come together for games, laughter, teamwork, and a little friendly competition was so special.

Thank you to everyone who helped plan, organize, travel, participate, and make this day possible. This is what being BETTER TOGETHER is all about! 💛

We already can’t wait for next year! 🏃‍♀️☀️🏆

✨At Yellow Brick Road Ankeny White Birch, we believe learning should be celebrated and shared.✨

That's why evidence of our children's growth, creativity, and accomplishments can be found throughout the school for families to see each day. From artwork and writing samples to classroom projects and learning displays, every piece tells a story of discovery, hard work, and development. 📚🎨

We love showcasing the amazing things our students are learning and giving families a window into the experiences that make each day meaningful. 💛💙

🔥 One of the many amazing things about our Pre-K program at Yellow Brick Road Ankeny White Birch is our themed learning weeks!🔥

A few weeks ago, our students explored Fire Safety Week, where they learned important safety skills through hands-on activities, dramatic play, vocabulary building, and interactive learning centers. ❤️

From creating their own fire department station to learning about fire extinguishers and firefighter equipment, our students had a blast while gaining valuable knowledge! 🚒👨‍🚒

🚨 Parent Safety Reminder 🚨

We wanted to help keep our families informed of several recent product recalls involving items many households may use, including:

• Certain Target Up & Up Baby Wipes

We encourage all families to take a few moments to check products in your home and stay up to date on current recalls. A quick review can go a long way in keeping your family safe. Recent recalls include Target’s Up & Up baby wipes due to potential microbial contamination and Nara Organics powdered infant formula due to concerns related to infant botulism.

🚌🎅🏼 ALL ABOARD THE YBR EXPRESS! 🎅🏼🚌

Christmas in July hit different this year… because our Ankeny schools showed UP and showed OUT at the town parade! ☀️

🎄 We decked out one of our buses, loaded up with hot chocolate, stickers, drawstring bags, a whole lot of YBR spirit, and rolled through town spreading JOY! 💛✨ Our teachers, students, and families brought the energy, the smiles, and the community love we're known for.

Watching everyone wave, cheer, and celebrate together? That's the stuff that fills our hearts right up. Ankeny, THANK YOU for welcoming us with open arms (and big smiles)! Days like this remind us how lucky we are to be part of such an incredible community.

Did you catch us at the parade?! Tell us in the comments — we want to hear from you! 🎉

🍩 DONUTS WITH DADS AT YBR WHITE BIRCH! 🍩

Our hearts are SO FULL this morning! ❤️

There's something extra special about watching dads, grandpas, uncles, and father figures walk through our doors with their little ones — ready to share donuts, giggles, and quality time together.

These moments are what it's all about. Not the perfect photo or the fancy setup — just connection. Just presence. Just love.

Thank you to every special person who took time out of their morning to be here. We know schedules are packed and mornings can be chaotic, but showing up for your kiddo means the world to them (and to us!).

Our goal is always simple:
✨ safe kids
✨ happy kids
✨ connected families

And mornings like this? They remind us we're doing exactly that.

Drop a 🍩 in the comments if you made it out today!

We love being part of your village, White Birch families.

— Your YBR Family 💙💛
