8th Grade Farewell-


Upton 8th graders will be honored at our annual 8th Grade Farewell on Friday, June 4th in a different way.   In years past this event was held in our Blue Gym for families to attend in the evening but this year, due to Covid and indoor gathering restrictions, this will be a student-only event during the school day.  Last year's 8th graders unfortunately did not get a chance to wrap things up at all, so we are glad we will have a different way to bring some closure at UMS.


Our 8th grade students will be outdoors for an extended picnic lunch and awards ceremony.  We will also have lawn games, photo opportunities and Dilly Bars, all being provided by our wonderful PTO.


Our 8th grade students have been resilient, flexible, and we know they will do great things at SJHS!





Community Corkboard - 


Is soccer something your son/daughter might be interested in?  Summer reading opportunity?  Camps, etc.?  Check out the community corkboard on our district website:

Dismissal will be at 11:00 AM on all three days.




Memorial Day quote -

Enjoy your three day weekend with your family and happy Memorial Day!




Have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend,
Mr. Mandarino
