Friday, January 24, 2020—First-grade #UASAtoms spent the afternoon running, dodging, and ducking at Accelerate Sports. These kinesthetic field trips integrate character lessons about sportsmanship and teamwork with the value of play. Way to go, Atoms! 

Tuesday, January 21, 2020—There's nothing to WAFFLE about on this one. These #UASAtoms are awesome! December Dojo and student of the month winners at the Elementary School celebrated their hard work with a Waffle Bar Breakfast. Way to go, Atoms!

Wednesday, January 15, 2020—Our Atoms give us all the courage we need to create, learn, grow and discover. The Elementary school recently held an art show for parents and students to actively engage and collaborate on various art pieces. It was such an amazing event, and a true joy to see all of our scholar's artwork come to life. Go Atoms!

Tuesday, January 7, 2020—Watch out folks, the kids are making dinner! #UASAtoms enjoyed a cooking demonstration from our very own Director of Dining Services, Tammy Pittsley, of Chartwells K12. Scholars observed the process of cooking and discussed all the pieces that need to come together in order to make a delicious meal. Sounds like it's time for YOU to start asking "What's for dinner tonight?"

Tuesday, November 26, 2020−Do you want to build a snowman? #UASCS First graders definitely did after their field trip to Marquee Cinema to watch Frozen 2. Sometimes it's important to kick back and celebrate hard work with a field trip. Go Atoms! 

Saturday, January 4, 2019—Atoms collided when the Utica Academy of Science took on the Syracuse Academy of Science for the second annual Superintendent's Match last Saturday during the Mohawk Valley Basketball Classic. While Utica started with a strong lead, the Syracuse team turned the game around and walked away with the trophy. Until next year, Atoms.

Friday, December 20, 2019—The weather outside was ‘frightful’ but the sound of classic holiday tunes filling the halls right before winter recess was, oh so delightful. Elementary Atoms take the stage singing and performing music pieces during their Winter Concert. This event wouldn’t be possible without the tremendous help from parents, faculty and staff. Thank you for your generosity, and making this concert unforgettable. We hope all of our Atoms are enjoying their winter recess and look forward to seeing you on Monday.

Thursday: Disney Day

Friday: Pajama Day

Friday, December 20, 2019—Middle school Atoms enjoyed a fun-filled day leading up to winter recess. From music and dancing, to a variety of station activities to even a friendly class competition of soccer it was certainly a day to remember. Oh, did we mention that it was also a pajama day, and teachers and staff sang their parody ‘Ten Days Before Break My Students Said to Me?!’

Students who earned over 50 merit points were eligible to participate in the student lock-in. Atoms enjoyed a pizza party, crafted their very own gingerbread houses (some construction materials might have been consumed), a ‘snowball fight,’ board games, and learned a Stepen hip-hop dance courtesy of Utica Dance.

Thank you, to the parents for the donations and for everyone who made this event possible, and memorable. We wish all of our Atoms, faculty and staff a safe and enjoyable winter recess, and we look forward to seeing you next week.

Tuesday, November 26, 2019—National Honor Society, a student based high school club at Utica Academy of Science, hosted its first-ever on campus student lock-in. This event allowed for Atoms to bond, strengthen friendships and build a community through a variety of activities.

Students had an opportunity to participate the following activities: basketball, volleyball, jewelry making, video gaming and watching movies.
