School pictures will be taken on Thursday, February 4th. Pictures must be paid for in advance. You can order before picture day on mylifetouch.com using ID code EVTQDJWFQ or send money with your child the day of pictures.
We’re excited about our latest fundraiser because you don’t have to buy ANYTHING! We’re collecting gently worn, used, and new shoes to raise money for a digital marquee. Not only do you help us, but the shoes also get a second life with those in need. It’s a double donation! Send your clean shoes to the media center. Please tie the shoes laces or rubber band the pairs together.
The Union Academy PTA is sponsoring Jeans Days again this year. Cost: $10 for the year. Jeans Allowed on the following days:

| January 15 | April 16 |
| January 29 | April 30 |
| February 12 | May 14 |

Price will not change throughout the year. The sooner you pay, the better the value!

- Pay by debit/credit card online by visiting the PTA page at https://unionacademypta.memberhub.store/shopping/categories/36796
- Get a form from your home room teacher and pay with $10 in cash (no checks, please!)
