Star eNews 11/28

Online orders are due today November 28th!

This is a FUN and easy way to raise money for UE, but also have some beautiful art keepsakes from your little artist right in time for the holidays!

This past week UES PTO treated teachers and staff to coffee, tea and delicious baked goods during conferences. We appreciate you and all you do for our children and the community!

Special Thank you to Famers & Co. for serving!

The UES PTO is requesting help from the 5th grade students. We are looking for five students to stay after school on Tuesday, November 30th until 5pm to help us sort the coins from the school coin drive. Supervision (and more sorting) will be provided by UES PTO.

Mrs. Eichmann and Mrs Smith are inviting you to join a holiday after school art club this December: 3:45-4:45pm on Wednesday's (12/1, 12/8, 12/15, 12/22)

Picture retake day is Thursday, December 2nd, 11:30 am - 1:30 pm.

Students and staff who were absent on the October picture day will get their pictures taken on Dec. 2nd. If you are not pleased with your student's pictures, please send in the picture package and the students will have their pictures retaken. It is helpful if you could send an email to your student's teacher and uesattendance@ucfsd.net so we are aware that you want their picture retaken.

Young Rembrandts Winter club is now open for registration!

The club runs from 1/4/2022 until 3/15/2022 on Tuesdays from 3:45 PM to 4:45 PM.

Let’s co-create this school year account of kids learning, growing, playing, engaging, connecting, and having fun. Send photos of your child to uestarsyearbook@gmail.com. Do you already have pictures of the first day of school, Halloween, classroom parties, spirit week photos? All photos are welcome! When emailing, please include your child’s name, grade, and teacher.

Faculty and staff are hard at work organizing and preparing the UES STEAM Room for use by students. The STEAM Room is in need of some materials in order to get up and running. Requested materials include:

• Playdough (any color)
• Masking Tape
• Duct Tape (any color)
• Toilet Paper & Paper Towel Rolls
• Crayola Molding Clay

Contributions can be brought to school and delivered to the library.

Thank you so much for your support of the UES STEAM Room!
