2019 Parent Survey

Parents, your feedback is important to us. We encourage you to participate in the 2019 UCPS Parent Survey. The survey will be open April 15-19. Please know that this is an anonymous survey and the information you provide will only be used to improve our teaching and learning practices and the overall UCPS experience for families.

No personally identifiable information pertaining to you or your student will be collected.  For your convenience, the survey can be taken through a mobile device and it is compatible with all operating systems.  We appreciate your time and cooperation.

PROCTORS NEEDED!

What does a proctor do? Their main responsibility is to monitor students as they are taking their test. We would love to have you volunteer to proctor for our upcoming EOG's. You do NOT have to be an approved UCPS volunteer in order to participate. If you have any extra time and want to give back to the students at UCPS, this is your chance. (Parents are not allowed to proctor for the grade level of their student BUT many days have multiple grade levels testing.) THANK YOU in advance!!!

Connect Ed - 4-14

Throughout this week we will have a Penny War to collect monies for Relay for Life. On Monday, there will be a fundraiser at McAllister’s to raise money for Relay for Life. Relay for Life monies support cancer research, patient support, cancer prevention and education, and cancer detection and treatment. This is a great and fun way for our students to join in on making a positive impact in their world. On Tuesday, we will have our Talent Show at the high school auditorium. Tuesday is also the end of the grading period and the date that sixth and seventh-grade registrations forms are due. Rising seventh and eighth-grade students will be signing up for their 2019-2020 elective courses in their Related Arts classes this Wednesday and Thursday. Friday is the first day of Spring Break.

UCPS Elementary Coding Camp

Mrs. Griffin, Computer Programming teacher, will be hosting the first ever UCPS Elementary Coding Camp here at Piedmont Middle. This camp is available to rising 4th, 5th, and 6th-grade students currently enrolled in Union County Public Schools and will be held June 24 - 27th. This camp runs each day beginning at 9:00 AM until 3:00 PM. Students must have reliable transportation to and from Piedmont Middle School each day.  The cost of the camp is $75.00 per student payable to Union County Public Schools.

This will be a fun week of coding and team building activities.  Students will not only learn coding through various projects in Tynker.com, but will also unleash their creativity through hands-on activities.  Campers will build games, interactive stories, websites, programmable circuits, and programmable drones.  Coding students will receive personalized instruction and collaborate with new friends.  After camp, kids will be able to share projects with family and friends through the online website that we build during camp.  Campers will also be able to continue their coding development through online access.
