Mandarino Minutes for 10-19-20

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Thanks Interact Club -

In recognition for all the hard work our custodians do at Upton Middle School, our amazing Interact Club provided some treats for their enjoyment! Our custodians have really worked extra hard this school year! They were amazed and blown away!

MASKS-

We really need your help in the morning to remind students to bring a mask to school everyday. We can't continue on this pace of giving away disposable ones at this rate. We also recommend a backup mask or two in a baggy in their backpack.

UPTO -

Parents, in case you missed the email earlier this week, this is our opportunity to support the Upton PTO (UPTO). Please take a minute to look over the flyer, which details where your money goes. Any and all donations are greatly appreciated. To make your donation simply click on the link below.

NWEA Student Progress Reports on Thursday -

We will be sending home student progress report with the students on Thursday, October 22nd. Please ask you daughter/son for it to take a glance. Remember what we want to see is growth from Fall to Spring over a school year.

Parking Lot-

Please practice caution, patience, a no-hurry attitude in the parking lot, drop-off, and pickup areas. We need to know that safety has to be your #1 importance and not be in a hurry. Thanks for your support!
