Lucky Sticker Day is coming to UMPS & UMIS! Starting this week and running through March, we're adding extra fun to our students' morning routine. Alternating each week between the Primary and Intermediate Schools, one lucky breakfast bag will sport a special purple star sticker. If your student finds the sticker, they win a prize! ⭐
This initiative is part of the Governor's School Breakfast Challenge, encouraging students to kick start their day with a balanced breakfast. We are #UMProud to offer all our students free, nutritious breakfast options, helping them fuel up for a day of learning.

Throughout the school year, our UMPS students have been learning about empathy & how to help others by supporting a different cause each month as part of their "First Friday" initiative.
For January's First Friday, UMPS families donated food items to support the UMHS Bear Den, UMMS Food CUBboard, and the Willow Grove Food Pantry. Thank you to all who contributed! We're #UMProud of how our school community united to support those in need. 💜🐻

This month marked the ROAR Pawprints kick-off at UMPS! 🐾 Students recently gathered for an assembly to learn more about this program, which encourages and recognizes our students for demonstrating the core values of ROAR: Respect, Ownership, Attitude, & Responsibility.
Throughout the school day, our amazing staff will be on the lookout for students who exemplify the Golden Bear Way! When they spot a student going above & beyond, they'll hand out special ROAR Pawprints. Students can earn incentives for themselves and their classrooms for consistently displaying positive behaviors.
🐻 Thanks to UMPS staff for their dedication to creating a positive & supportive learning environment!
