4th Grade Ceremony Location Change!
With the forecast for tomorrow looking uncertain, we have proactively moved the 4th Grade Ceremony to the Montpelier High School Auditorium. This is a lovely, large enough venue to host our 4th graders and all wishing to celebrate their achievements!
There will be a short welcome performance by our 4th Grade Chorus Members that will begin at 5:45. The Chorus has been an elective group that have met during lunch on Mondays. They will sing a few songs as guests and other 4th graders arrive for the Ceremony. Please ask your child if they have participated in the Monday elective Chorus to determine arrival time.
The 4th Grade Ceremony will begin at 6:00 pm. There will be beautiful 4th Grade masks to see and cookies to share at a short reception following the ceremony at roughly 6:30.
Student Arrival Information:
- 4th graders performing in the 4th grade chorus should arrive by 5:30.
- All other 4th graders should arrive by 5:45. *Please enter the auditorium quietly and kindly for the 4th grade chorus members to sing a welcome!
Parking
There is limited parking at MHS. If you arrive and the lot is full, parking can also be found at the Department of Labor or any of the State parking lots in town.

What a year! Here’s what we did and donation request
Thank you to all UES caregivers for making this school year magical. Because of all of you, we were able to again focus our efforts on providing fun, meaningful acts of appreciation for our amazing UES staff. Additionally, we were able to host UES community events, including bringing back UES Loves Books Week and supporting the Lip Sync event! Click Here to see all the wonderful things we were able to accomplish during the 2022-2023 school year.
In order to continue these fabulous activities into the next school year, we are asking for a small donation. Any amount that you can contribute will allow the UES Caregivers Alliance to start the school year with the much needed funds to begin our activities and events first thing in September as learners (new and wiser) come to UES.
