Yantis ISD

In an abundance of caution, Yantis ISD will dismiss school for all students (car and bus riders) at 3:05 PM on Friday, January 23rd. This should allow all buses to return to school before the anticipated arrival of freezing rain, set to begin at 4:00 PM.

Varsity Girls will play in Boles at 3:00 on Friday, January 23rd, with Varsity Boys to follow (NO JV).

With the threat of potential wintry weather, we made a few changes to this week's schedule. Please see below and if you have any questions.

What a great night for our Yantis Owls and Lady Owls! 🦉💙 They came out strong and swept the PTAA Panthers, winning all three basketball games. So proud of the effort and teamwork. 👏🏀
