The community is very supportive of the schools and places a high priority on education. Through various bond issues, top rate facilities have been constructed and our district is considered a leader in the area of technology. Our schools are staffed with dedicated and experienced instructors. They are the strength of our school and continue to seek new and innovative approaches to improve the quality of instruction. This attitude guarantees the citizens of Yukon an educational program of high standards that well deserves their ongoing pride.
All meetings are open to the public and patrons are always welcome.
The annual school elections are held on the second Tuesday of February. If a runoff is necessary, it will be held the first Tuesday in April. All precincts are open. In 1891 the Yukon Public School's District opened its doors in a small one room frame building. Since then the school system has grown to a school population in 1999 of over 6000 students.
