Thank you for your service, and welcome to Yellow Springs Schools!

We are grateful for the families who serve our country and proud to welcome military-connected students to our school community. Whether Yellow Springs is a new school home for your family or a place you have called home for years, we want your student to feel known, supported, and connected from the very beginning.

At Yellow Springs Schools, we believe every student brings unique experiences, strengths, and perspectives to our community. Our educators and staff are committed to helping military-connected students find their footing, build meaningful relationships, and feel a strong sense of belonging as they learn and grow.

We understand that military life can bring changes, transitions, and new beginnings. Our schools are here to be a steady and welcoming part of that journey. Through caring relationships, responsive support, and connections with families and community partners, we work together to help every student thrive.
