5th Grade Awards & Walk Away

Parents of 5th Graders are invited to join us on May 31st at 10:45 in the gym for our awards assembly. We will recognize their accomplishments, contributions and bid farewell to our 5th Graders as they walk their last lap as an elementary student! The walkaway will take place immediately following the awards ceremony (approx. 11:30) near the walking track.

Student Medication

Rescue medications (Epi-pens and inhalers) will be sent home on the last day of school with students. If your child has other medication in our school office it must be picked up by the child's parent/guardian in the school office by Friday, May 31st. Any medications left after school is closed for the summer will be discarded. Please disregard this message if you have already picked up the medication at any time during the year.

Have a great summer vacation!

LOST&FOUND

The office still has yearbooks for sale. Parents are welcome to stop in or send money with your child so they don't miss out on these wonderful memories of our school year. Cost for $17 (exact change please or check written to SJPS). This is a great memory of the school year for your student!

Upton Cross Country

Summer is just around the corner and I'm sure that brings a level of excitement, especially for your students. It also can be a time when boredom sets in for some kids around the second week of summer. I invite you to consider having your child join the Upton Cross Country team. Cross country is one of the few sports that is open for students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grade. It's a great way to beat that summertime boredom, get active, and do something worthwhile. There are so many benefits to the sport, not to mention plenty of opportunities to get together with classmates and build new friendships. Please take a look at the 2024 SJCC Summer News Packet for more detailed information. I can't wait to start working with this year's team!


Please don't hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions.


Thanks,

Coach Matt Maier

  Monday, October 30 Tuesday, October 31 Fall Parties Costume Parade 1st-5th @ 3:15 on playground It's been a tradition in my class that the students donate a dollar or two and we order Little Caser's pizza, breadsticks, and soda. However, they are allowed to bring in snacks as well. We have 29 kiddos. Our party will consist of Minecraft Education and other school-appropriate games. The day is so hectic that we only have about an hour to have a party. It will be broken up into segments. The students will eat pizza and socialize from 1:15-1:45. We will have our afternoon switch (science and social studies) from 1:45-2:15. The party will resume around 2:45. Reminders: Halloween reminders: Costumes can be worn to school so long as they are appropriate - no weapons, gore, or masks during the day (masks can be worn during the parade) Halloween parade at 3:15. We will take one slow loop around the track for everyone to see, grab some pictures, and then head back inside. Wednesd...
