Date: August 23, 2011 - 5:30pm

Urbana Middle School invites Parents and students to their annual PTSA Picnic and UMS Open House, next Tuesday, August 23rd at 5:30pm. The picnic will be held in the newly remodeled cafetorium where PTSA members will be selling pizza, water, and soda.


This year, in addition to meeting teachers and teams, the middle school is adding special learning sessions for parents. During these sessions, parents will have the opportunity to learn and discuss topics about challenges during middle school years, accessing homework blogs, special education needs, and strategies for homework help. There will also be information for Spanish-speaking parents about how to advocate for their children, the need to maintain two-way communication with teachers and staff, parent involvement opportunities, and info about “who’s who” at UMS.
