💙 From Yates student to Yates teacher, some stories truly come full circle!

Years ago, Jo Elna Arnold walked the halls of D. P. Yates Primary as a kindergartner in Courtney Robbins’ classroom. Today, she’s back in those same halls, this time as a second-grade teacher, with her former teacher serving as her mentor!

For Jo Elna, it’s about more than coming home. It’s about giving her students the same love, encouragement and sense of belonging she experienced as a child.

“This school gave me my stepping stones,” Arnold shared.

What a beautiful reminder that the impact of a teacher can last a lifetime. 💙

Kindergarten learned all about fire safety and prevention today with a special visit from the Cleveland Fire Department!

Thank you for helping our students learn how to stay safe! 🔥🧯
