Hi Union Owls,
I would like to thank our 3rd-5th graders and staff for voting and I would like to thank all of our candidates for their effort and time that they put into this election. All of you did a "OWLstanding" job and I am so proud of you all! Each of you have unique leadership qualities that you should feel confident in. If you were not elected - please remember to keep trying for the things you want and never give up! Keep your heads held high!
Congratulations to our new student leadership team members! More information will be coming to you soon! If you were elected, we have our first meeting on Monday, September 16th until 4pm.

Another great Friday morning with our Rebel friends! Thank you for getting up early to help make our students day! Good luck tonight, Rebels!








Congratulations to Annalise and Trevor for being recognized as our September Bus Rider of the Month!

Read-A-Thon Update from PTO Board
At our PTO meeting this AM we learned that the RC reading program used for 3rd-5th grade is no longer available. RAZ KIDS will still be available for K-2nd grader.
Accelerated Reader (AR) Renaissance is a new program that can be purchased to replace RC reading program. The PTO Board has decided to use funds raised in the Read-A-Thon to cover the cost of this program first and use any remaining funds toward playground improvement. We want to make sure our 3rd-5th graders are growing and advancing their reading skills and comprehension this year!
Here is the link for the Accelerated Reader program -

If you have not already done so, please click on this link to activate your reader’s personal page and make sure to record any reading they do at home for prizes and parties! Also, consider asking family and friend to donate to our goal of purchasing this new reading program.
