UJA Parents, Our Learning Fair is on schedule to happen this Thursday (March 9) at 6:30. Looking forward to seeing our students share what they have done. There will be no general announcements so simply visit your child's classroom and make sure to check out what some of the other classrooms are doing as well. God bless, Rick Nelson

I have a couple calendar reminders for you. - Sunday, August 7; Campus Cleanup and barbecue. You are invited to come meet, greet and help get our campus ready for the year. We will start at 8:00 and will go to 12:00 when we will enjoy a barbecue together. Feel free to come for all or part of the day, or even just come for the food. We would love to see you and get a chance to visit. - Monday evening, August 15, starting at 6:30; Parent Orientation. This will be a time to hear from Mr. Nelson some general information before you have the opportunity to find your way to the classrooms to hear from your child’s teacher everything you need to know about the coming school year. You will also have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have. - Wednesday, August 17; The First Day of School!! Uniforms Just a reminder that uniform tops need to be purchased from our Lands End link on our website, myuja.org.

Campus Clean Up and Barbecue! This Sunday from 8-12 Ukiah Junior Academy will be having volunteer campus clean up. Teachers and staff will be here with church and school volunteers getting our campus ready for the start of school on Aug. 17. There will be indoor and outdoor tasks ready for your help. Tasks from general classroom sprucing up to active tasks like cleaning out gutters or putting together a new playground structure. Our Home and School will be providing a barbeque lunch afterward (chefs Pete and Jeni Bushby will make it worth your while!). Come for the morning, come for an hour, or come for lunch! We would love to see you, work with you, and share a good meal in the shade of the playground trees.
