After School Pickup and the AM drop-off -
With cold weather around the corner I wanted to remind you that we need every student picked up by 3:00 PM. With all our cleaning protocols that are in place we can't have students hanging around after school in the building. Also, in the morning the doors click open at 7:15 AM on regular school days and 8:15 AM on late starts. This is the time our morning supervision begins. We do not want students waiting outside the doors in the cold months as well.
Student Council Opportunity -
Ms. Toth, our new student council advisor, has a slide show for you to view with your son/daughter if they might be interested in being a part of the Upton Student Council. Please click below for the link:

You may want to bookmark this if your daughter/son is a virtual student.
Virtual Parents with children in performing arts please take a look-
Below is our schedule for the regular school days and late starts (one hour delay). Please know that on late start Wednesdays the one hour delay schedule is used when dropping off and picking up after band, choir, or orchestra.
COVID Test On your Own & Exposure Chart-
If you have chosen to get a COVID test for your son/daughter because you are thinking they might have COVID, the student may not return to school until you receive a negative notice. Please also provide the office with the letter from the health provider indicating this. Below is a helpful chart if your daughter/son has had known exposure for you to refer to as well.
Also use the below link found on our District Website as a quick reference.
