The 2011-2012 School Year has officially ended ~ exams are over, good-byes were said and the buses pulled out for the last time for this school year.
So...what does the UC Community do...host a BBQ for our newest members ~ the Class of 2015!
Big Brothers and Sisters were on hand to welcome the Class of 2015 on a gorgeous sunny afternoon. Mrs. Abel fired up the grill and Mr. Luciano directed activities in between the DJs music ~ by the way there is no lack of dancing skills in this class!!
This is a bittersweet time for our incoming students. Some of them are leaving friends that they have been with for eight or nine years. But rest assured Class of 2015, new friends, new clubs, new sports and new activities await you here at Union Catholic ~ UC IS WHERE YOU WANT TO BE!!
Union Catholic Big Brothers and Sisters will be in touch by July 1st ~ feel free to ask them any questions you may have - they are here to help!
Some reminders:
Emerging Leader Applications have been mailed. Applications and letter of recommendations are due back by September 15th.
Summer Reading and Math Assignments are available on our website www.unioncatholic.org/community/parentessentials.php If you have any questions regarding your English Level, feel free to contact the admissions office.
