Dear Parents/Guardians,



Great concert last week-


We would like to congratulate our Upton & High School bands for a wonderful concert last week at St. Joseph High School!  Our kids performed well and the progression right through high school was amazing. Great job to Mr. Doe, Mrs. Cabanilla-Sinnett, and our A.I.R.'s for their hard work with the students! It was a night that put a smile on your face!

Congratulations to the Upton Robotics Joe Bots - White Team #13702!!
We finished 25th out of 36 teams in the Michigan State Championship - Franklin division. The Job Bots were also nominated as the first runner up for the Rockwell Collins Innovate Award Finalist position.

The team fought hard through some challenging robot malfunctions and had some great game play while being gracious professionals the whole time! We had a lot of fun at the State Championship and made some new friends in the robotics community. The team finishes the season with a record of 11-10-1.

All three Joe Bots teams will now move into the off-season activities while we watch the SJHS team The Average Joes begin their season on January 4th, 2020. 

The Joe Bots have some great outreach events coming up! We will keep you posted as to where you can see the Joe Bots in action soon.

We wish to thank all of our team sponsors, The Saint Joseph Public School Foundation, Saint Joseph Public Schools, our mentors and coaches for a great season! The teams would not go so far in the Robotics competitions without their continued support!  Go Joes!!

Carrie-Ann Thurman, the November winner for Upton Bears Student CU.  Carrie-Ann won a gift basket with a $25.00 Visa gift card!


Unplug-
Every year at the break I always encourage parents to have your daughter/son unplug as much as possible.  Less computer time and more family time, less phone time and more time with friends, less time on video games and more outdoor activities, etc.  Two weeks away from their devices is healthy! 💻📱🎮


No Late Start or Go Time this week-
We have no late start and GO time this week.


Leaving Early For Break?-
If you are leaving early for the break, please let our office know with a note or a phone call. If you are calling the number is (269) 926-3400.



Quote of the week-





Have a wonderful two weeks off with your family!
Mr. Mandarino
