Monday, November 13th, 2023: Utica Academy of Science Kindergarteners in Ms. Moziak’s art class made paint dotter pumpkins over the past week to celebrate the fall season! They had a great time experimenting with different color combinations, and were very proud to show off their art in the main hallway.
Check out these little artists!
Thursday, November 9th, 2023: Ms. Mumpton’s class has grown by two! Since the class reached their goal of 2,000 Dojo points for October, on November 8th, two guinea pigs were adopted as class pets! Their names are Coco and Honey. The students will be responsible for cleaning the cage, feeding them, giving them water, and everything they need to thrive in the classroom. Studies have shown that a classroom pet may help improve children's academic performance and social skills.
These Atoms are excited to welcome the new classmates to their fourth-grade classroom!
Thursday, November 2, 2023: Some Utica Academy of Science scholars had breakfast with our Superintendent, Dr. Hayali. They enjoyed delicious chocolate chip waffles and fruit. These breakfasts are such a special treat for our scholars and Dr. Hayali. It serves as a time for Atoms to get to know their school better and make suggestions for improvements.
What a great way to start the day!
Wednesday, November 1st, 2023: What's the craziest day of Spirit Week at Utica Academy of Science Elementary?! It's Crazy Hair Day on a wacky kind of Wednesday! Students and staff went all out and showed us their wildest hairstyles. Check it out!
Monday, October 30th, 2023: Utica Academy of Science celebrated the students' achievements and rewarded good behavior. October’s Character Trait was Honesty. Atoms in each homeroom displaying Honesty characteristics were nominated for the Student of the Month Award. Students also earned awards for Dojo achievements and attendance. One class from each grade earned the Golden Tray Award for good behavior in the cafeteria.
Congratulations, Atoms!
Friday, October 27th, 2023: Double, double, toil and trouble! 2nd-grade Atoms celebrated STEM Friday by making a magic potion in science class. They combined yeast, food coloring, water, dish soap, and hydrogen peroxide. Our scholars enjoyed the experiment in small groups and then as a big group.
Tuesday, October 31st, 2023: Utica Academy of Science Elementary Atoms threw on their favorite Halloween costume and did the Monster Mash around the school! Junior-Senior High School students lined the hallway to cheer on their younger classmates. Even Clifford the Big Red Dog made a cameo! Hopefully, this was great practice for Atoms who went trick-or-treating after school!
Thursday, October 26th, 2023: Ghosts, goblins, and Clifford the Big Red Dog! It was a howlin' good time when #UASCS Elementary School held its first-ever Trunk-or-Treat night. Staff and families decorated their trunks and passed out treats for our scholars and their families. It was a wonderful evening full of laughs, play, dancing, and community.
Huge thanks to the FSA and Ms. Smith for helping organize this wonderful event and to everyone who came and participated. We can't wait to do it again next year!
