At the March 5 Union County Public Schools Board of Education meeting, the new school model for Shiloh and Sun Valley Elementary Schools was approved. As discussed in our previous meetings with our school community, this model will take effect for the 2019-20 school year. Under this model, Shiloh Elementary School will move to the Traditional Calendar. Sun Valley Elementary School will become our Pre-K through 2nd building and Shiloh Elementary will become our 3rd-5th grade building. We understand and respect that you may have questions about next year, including the bell schedules and transportation plan. We are in the initial planning phases for those items and will provide periodic updates to our school community as that information is available. We will also provide information in the coming weeks about possible summer enrichment programs. We appreciate all of your feedback and input during this process. We look forward to being better together!

Recently our 5th graders visited Sun Valley Middle School. They enjoyed a presentation about band and how band sign-ups work. Students and parents can use the SVMS Beginning Band Blog https://svmsbeginningband.blogspot.com/?_sm_au_=iMVV2L15rvM1HLsD to sign up for 1 of the 4 main band instruments: flute, clarinet, trumpet, and trombone. The deadline for sign-ups is Friday, March 15 (next Friday). The 6th Grade Band Roster will be posted on Thursday, March 21 and the FOLLOWING Thursday, March 18 there will be a Band Registration Meeting in the SVMS Library. Parents may attend the meeting at 5 or 6 PM. For more information, please contact Natashia Day at Natassia.Day@ucps.k12.nc.us. Click here for the band flyer.
