Thursday, May 7, 2020—"Our building is missing the most important piece, that's the heartbeat of our school, and that's our scholars." Ms. Grider, we couldn't agree more. To celebrate the Class of 2020 the #UASCS team drove to the homes of each of our graduating seniors to wish them well, plant a congratulatory lawn sign, and check-in. It's times like these that remind us more than ever, we are many Atoms, ONE Family.

This heartfelt gesture received wonderful coverage from both the Observer-Dispatch & WKTV Newschannel 2
