Union Chapel Elementary School

Growing a Better World – One Wildflower at a Time! Our second grade students had a wonderful time planting wildflowers as they kicked off their butterfly garden project! As part of their current learning EL module, students explored how they can work together to contribute to a better world. Through this hands-on experience, they discovered how planting wildflowers supports the growth and survival of butterflies in our environment. A huge thank you to all the parents and volunteers who donated plants and helped bring this project to life. Your support made this meaningful learning experience possible! The unit's theme was "If we do small things in our community, we can make a big difference."

📢 Attention Parents of Rising Kindergarteners and 7th Graders! As you prepare for the upcoming school year, please be aware of the North Carolina Grade Level Entry Vaccine Requirements for students entering Kindergarten and 7th Grade. Be sure to schedule appointments early and submit updated immunization records to your child’s school before the first day of class to ensure compliance. Let’s work together to keep our students safe, healthy, and ready to learn! If you have any questions, please contact your child’s school or local health department.

We continue with Day 3 of Teacher Appreciation Week. Each day we will highlight a group of teachers and teacher assistants. We have an awesome group of instructional leaders and we want to celebrate them for all they do to make Union Chapel School a great place to learn! Here's to our third and fourth grade teachers. Third grade teachers are very special to us because they work with students who haven't quite grasped if they are ready to leave all things associated with K-2 and become part of the 4-6 world. It's a tricky time for teachers and students alike. And fourth grade teachers are the lucky ones who get to experience the students when they realize they are too cool for ALL the things. Nevertheless, these teachers persevere and keep things rolling. We cannot thank these teachers enough for the hard work they put into ensuring the success of their students. Take a bow, teachers!

Today begins Teacher Appreciation Week. Each day we will highlight a group of teachers and teacher assistants. We have an awesome group of instructional leaders and we want to celebrate them for all they do to make Union Chapel School a great place to learn! Let's start the celebration with our Pre-K and Kindergarten teams! What can be said about these unsung heroes? Teaching Pre-k and Kindergarten is like herding cats... if the cats were covered in glitter, asking 400 questions a minute, and suddenly cried because their sock felt ‘funny.’ If you know, you know! We don't know how you do it, but we appreciate you ladies more than you will ever know.
