On Tuesday, October 30, 2018 #UASCS middle school organized a field trip to Pumpkin Hollow. It was an opportunity for UASCS scholars to experience and discuss the human impact on the environment, and also to choose their favorite pumpkin in the field. These outdoor excursions are just one of the ways we are building success one ATOM at a time.

On Friday, October 26, 2018 #UASCS Middle School hosted the Glowing Party. The party was organized by the Parent Involvement Committee. The party was a great opportunity for students to have fun, socialize, and most importantly dance with the music carefully dj'ed by DJ Burwick.

On Monday, October 22, 2018 #UASCS held the October Assembly. This event was an opportunity to acknowledge the success of our #UASAtoms and share in community music performances. Acknowledge the success of our scholars is one of the ways we are building success one ATOM at a time.

On Friday, October 19, 2018, first grade #UASAtoms attended their first class field trip to Fort Rickey Children's Discover Zoo, in Rome, NY.  The zoo provided an ice cream cone full of animal food and #UASAtoms took bits at a time in their hand to feed the deer and sheep through the fence and then fed them the ice cream cone. After stepping into the enclosure, #UASAtoms were able to pet the deer and hug the sheep. Our #UASAtoms were then taken to the dock and were able to feed the fish and ducks, and they loved it!

We then took a wagon ride that drove us around the zoo, where we were able to see all of the animals in their enclosures. After lunch, we were let into the “maternity pen” where the students were able to pet and hold baby goats and their mothers. Following the maternity pen, we went and played in the ball pit. We aren't sure who had more fun, the students or the chaperones! These visits to local zoo's help expose our #UASAtoms to diverse wildlife and are just one of the ways we are building success one ATOM at a time.

On Friday, October 19, 2018, blue skies and perfect fall weather welcomed #UASCS sophomores to the Adirondacks. Scholars eagerly faced the challenge of climbing Bald Mountain, where they encountered fantastic fall foliage, crisp fresh air, and panoramic views. Many scholars faced their fear of heights and climbed the fire tower at the very top of the 2,313-foot summit. The climb was challenging at times, slippery with wet leaves and mud that tried to suck your shoes off if you weren’t careful, but none of our scholars gave up or turned back. The view was definitely worth it.

On Thursday, October 11, 2018, #UASAtoms attended our monthly assembly where we come together as a school community to celebrate students. Scholars have the opportunity to earn a special reward on a monthly basis for who earns the most ClassDojos. Teachers also select students for Student of the Month. Afterward, Frankfort Center Fire Department came and did a special presentation to help educate #UASAtoms on fire safety. Thank you, Frankfort Center Fire Department!
