  • School budgets are increasingly under financial pressure, and while Yarmouth schools do an excellent job covering core services, there isn’t much left over to cover special, innovative initiatives. This is where YEF dollars come in. YEF only funds projects that are not core to school budgets, like building a new STEAM lab at Yarmouth Elementary or professional development to ensure our teachers are up to date on the most effective, evidence-based practices.
