Announcements

The Final Lap.  Now that Memorial Day is here, June is just around the corner, and the checkered flag is waiving as we enter the final lap of the school year.   For the high school, there are only a few (10) instructional days remaining until we get to Final Exams (in class exams - no special schedule) on June 13th and 14th.  For the middle school, you have a few more (18) before Stepping Up and HS graduation (which will both be half days for kids).  This year has been super busy, very hard, and never had one dull moment.  As a result, we're all tired, BUT it did make the time fly!  As we gear up for the end, remember, it will go fast.  You'll be tempted to put things off (because you are tired), but that will only make it harder and more stressful.  Like the last mile in a marathon, dig deep and keep putting one foot in front of the other.  When we reach the finish line of our graduation on the last day of school, it will feel epically awesome! 

UAI STAFF PICTURE DAY.  On Tuesday 28MAY19, we are going to be taking a UAI Staff Picture on the front steps of the school.  Please wear your favorite UAI t-shirt or gear and report to the school front steps at 3:15PM.  We'll be using these pictures for special end-of-the-year events!
