Mandarino Minutes for 5-6-22

Dear Parents/Guardians,

Salmon in the Classroom-

Our 8th graders this week headed to Watervliet to release their salmon that have been with them since an egg earlier this school year. An article featured this in the Wednesday Herald Palladium. I know that because of the elements the Tuesday group had their experience cut short, but overall it is a great project with many benefits. Thanks to our science department, parent volunteers, Dr. St. Amand and her wonderful staff!

Upton Updates From Your Guidance Department

Thanks Parents, UPTO, and School Board -

Thanks so much to the UPTO and parents that made this week special for the staff at Upton Middle School! The treats and wellness bar were very appreciated and was a big hit! We feel so supported by you! We also appreciate all the nice emails and notes that have been sent this week! The school board also provided the staff with a cake and some nice notes!

Visiting 5th graders -

The 5th graders from across the three elementary schools visited this week and had a great experience! They heard about the school day, club/sport opportunities, had lunch, toured, tried opening a locker, and asked many questions!

Girls Soccer -

Lady Bears vs. Lakeshore soccer game-

We have been invited to the high school soccer home games vs. Lakeshore on Monday, May 9th. JV plays at 5:00 and Varsity plays at 6:30. If your player wears her jersey, she can get in free. We will sit together in the stands during the games and cheer on the Lady Bears, as we play our rivals. Come see what soccer looks like in high school! There are a lot of other events at the high school that night, so please be aware that parking may be an issue. Let's have some fun and enjoy a fun night of soccer!
