Dear Parents/Guardians,
Return to 100% -
We (the staff at UMS) are looking forward to a return to 100% face-to-face instruction! I know a lot of our students are also looking forward to this as well. 😃 The numbers in the county as well as the school district support this decision.
It’s Springtime which means it’s Blossomtime!
We would like to invite school age kids (toddler – Middle School) to participate in the 2021 Blossomtime Youth Parade on May 8th along Lake Boulevard in downtown St. Joseph at 12 noon. Check-in at 11:00am.
Categories include: Shoebox, Bands, floats, decorated bikes/wagons/doll carriages, costumed pets, costumed individuals/groups, cheerleading, pom pon groups, drill teams, drum line, scout troops & 4H clubs.
The 2021 application and flyer are attached and we truly hope you’ll consider sharing this information and being a part of this long standing tradition this year.

Mandatory Weekly Rapid COVID-19 Antigen Testing Information:
Upton track athletes who are 13 years old or older will be required to take a COVID-19 Rapid Antigen Test each week. Attached below are MDHHS Safer Conduct and COVID-19 Antigen Test Consent and Registration Forms. You can print these forms or your athlete can get the forms from your coach or the Upton Office. Both forms must be completely filled out with athlete and parent signatures filled in and turned into your coach before an athlete can be tested throughout the season.
The girls soccer club players test every Tuesday throughout the season at 3pm in Upton’s cafeteria. An athlete will have to test each week to be cleared to play for the next 7 days.
