April 27, 2018 Middle school Spelling bee competition
Sponsored by the Key club and the BSU, several of our middle school students will be taking part in a spelling bee contest on May 4th. These courageous, and intelligent students will showcase their skills and intellect at the CCAC Northside campus when they compete against other middle school students from local schools here in the city. Much like February’s Black History quiz bowl, when our high school students completely dominated the event, let’s try and bring home another first place finish to show everyone how smart and talented the students at UPCS 6-12 really are. If you happened to see any of the participants in this event be sure to give them your support and encouraging words to do well. From all of us here at the Paw Print we salute all those students who are participating and wish them all good luck.
Special Thank you to the KEYS Service Corps The UPCS Journal, Thanks KEYS Service Corps and all of its members for their support with creating the 2018 yearbook. On behalf of the entire UPCS family we humbly and graciously thank you for all that your organization has done for us. Panther Pride all the way!!!!
Pittsburgh’s 2018 March for dimes event Nearly 5,000 marchers took part Sunday morning in the March for Babies on Pittsburgh’s North Shore. The National Center for Health Statistics reports that on average in Pennsylvania, one in eleven babies is born prematurely. March chairman Tom McGough says the March of Dimes hopes to change that.” The March for Dimes spends millions of dollars a year supporting research and also supporting the families who experience premature birth,” McGough said.
