PTO Winter Party on December 21st!

Following the recent lift on visitor restrictions previously in place for elementary schools we are now able to invite parents into the classroom for our Winter Classroom Party! We are limiting the number of volunteers to 2 per classroom but there are other ways to help if you are unable to attend in person.


Thanks for your help!

Visitor Remiders

Just a few reminders as we welcome visitors back into the building. All visitors must wear a face mask regardless of vaccination status or exemptions. Also, all visitors must check into the main office to sign in and to be escorted to the classroom. Please call the main office if you have any questions.

Dress Warm for Outside Recess!

We got an incredible week of mild temperatures in December, but the colder temperatures are coming back. Per UCSD procedures, recess will be outdoors unless the temperature is below 10 degrees with windchill.

Choose The U: Substitute Pay Increased To $165 Per Day

Providing high-quality instruction is essential for learning which is why Urbandale Community School District is increasing the daily teacher substitute pay rate from $135 to $165. Once substitute teachers have subbed 50 days within a school year, they’ll receive a loyalty bonus which will increase their daily substitute rate for the rest of the school year to $185.


Apply today to become a substitute teacher in UCSD. Learn more about obtaining your Substitute Authorization. For questions or additional information, please contact HR Manager Kate Johnson johnsonk@urbandaleschools.com. There has never been a better time to #choosetheU!
