January 9th Update Email

January 9, 2026

Do you know what two updates in one week means? Ms. Anderson forgot many things. My apologies! Here is some more information about things that are coming soon for Upland Terrace. 

Kindergarten- Second Grade Gifted Testing

    If you have a student currently in kindergarten, first or second grade who you feel may benefit from being gifted tested, please let Mrs. Black or your student’s teacher know. We will then get your student added to our testing list. We need the names of students to be tested by February 6th. The students will be gifted tested on February 25^th and 26th. 

Upland is Hiring!

    Do you know someone looking for a part time job? We are in need of some custodial helpers. There are two positions posted on the district website; one is for kids aged 14-17 (custodial helper 1) and the other is for anyone over 18 (custodial helper 2). 

Report Cards

    Report cards for the second quarter were sent home with students today. Please check their backpacks for this information. You can also login to your FOCUS parent portal to see the information, in case the report cards grew legs and walked away 😉.

Spirit Week

    Spirit Week starts Monday, with an easy spirit day for parents. Monday will be pick your own seat at lunch day. A flyer was sent home with students or you can view the attachment here to see the rest of the days. I have also attached our parent calendar for January and February so you can plan ahead.
