ATTENTION FAMILIES OF SENIORS:
This is a heads up that the yearbook needs your senior portraits and baby pictures. The sooner you can turn them in the better, but the actual deadline is the last day of school before Christmas break. Email them to dancheney@upsala.k12.mn.us or bring them in and we can scan them. Thanks!
In PE this week we are doing the push-up, sit-up, mile test.
