Upper Elementary News

Dear UE Families,
It’s hard to believe it’s already May and that spring and its many traditions are now upon us! It is a pleasure and an honor to be a part of our scholars’ journeys as they take on new experiences, begin to see their goals come within reach and prepare for what’s to come.

Dear UE Families,
I hope this message finds you well and filled with the same excitement and energy that filled the halls of the UE campus during this first week back from the April break! It has been wonderful to witness students and teachers returning to the work of finishing the year strong with such dedication and enthusiasm.

Dear UE Families,
It was a very busy week here at the Upper Elementary Campus! On Monday, we kicked off our last week before April break with a trip to Foss Park to view the eclipse and recognize our scholars’ strong efforts leading up to MCAS testing. Students and staff enjoyed coming together as an entire school community to celebrate their hard work and share the awe of witnessing a near-total solar eclipse! Click on the photo compilation below for an insight into our action-packed afternoon!

Dear UE Families,
It’s hard to believe it’s already April (and not just because of the snow on the ground)! Even harder to believe is the fact that we have already reached our first week of MCAS testing. Next week, on Tuesday, April 9th, and again on Thursday, April 11th, our students will be taking the statewide English Language Arts assessment. While this test is just one measure of our students’ learning, it is an opportunity for them to show what they have learned and for us to evaluate the effectiveness of our curriculum.
