On Monday, November 26, 2018, Utica City 4th District Councilman, Joseph Marino, stopped at #UASCS to tour the elementary and high school. Marino visited our English as a New Language Department, spoke with staff about the work they are doing, and then presented to our ninth grade #UASAtoms. Marino highlighted the value of volunteer work and being an engaged citizen. He then encouraged our #UASAtoms to become active participants within their community.
