Hello everyone!
Happy Wednesday! Here is the latest news from Upland.
Student Drop Off and Pick Up Safety
Winter weather is here! Please follow our student drop off and pick up procedures – especially in winter driving conditions. Remember that the student drop off and pick up area is the WEST parking lot. Be sure to slow your speed. The procedures are attached for your review.
Thanks to all who always follow the procedures! We appreciate your help in keeping our students safe.
Open Enrollment
It’s Open Enrollment time! If you know of families who live outside of our school boundaries and are interested in attending Upland Terrace, now is the time to apply. The Open Enrollment – Early Application Period for the 2023-2024 school year is now open and ends on Friday, February 3, 2023. This is the recommended time to apply for enrollment for the coming school year.
New this year – applications can be filled out electronically. You can find the link to the application here: https://www.graniteschools.org/bulletin/school-open-enrollment-information-2023-2024/
Once the application is submitted online, a timestamped copy of the application will be emailed to the parent/guardian and to the requested school. Notification of the application’s acceptance/denial will be given by email or phone by Friday, March 31, 2023.
If you currently have students at Upland and live outside our school boundaries and have already completed an Open Enrollment application in previous years, there is no need to re-apply. (Fifth grade parents: you will need to apply at the junior high school of your choosing if it is outside your home school boundaries.)

We are (still) hiring! Please click the link below to read about positions available at our school.
PTA News
Thank you to all those who helped assemble ornament packets! They are all done and ready to go!
We still need a few more class volunteers! Sign up here to help in your child’s classroom: Classroom Sign Up
Volunteers need to coordinate with teachers to find a time **BEFORE DECEMBER 9** to come in and help make the ornaments (5th Grade volunteers, please bring a few hammers if you can).
All supplies are ready in the PTA Room with instructions & a supply list for each ornament. Please clean and return any school supplies (paint brushes, etc.) quickly for other classes to use. Attached is a PDF with instructions for each ornament and a QR code to a site with a helpful tutorial.
Thank you again for your help!! And as always, if you have any questions, please reach out!
