The 18th Annual February Follies at Union City Elementary School was a wonderful celebration of student talent, creativity, and school spirit. This much anticipated talent show showcased the impressive abilities of our elementary students while bringing families and community members together for an evening of fun and entertainment. In addition to highlighting the confidence and hard work of our young performers, the event proudly served as a fundraiser for the UCASD Foundation, supporting programs and opportunities that enrich learning across the district. February Follies continues to be a cherished tradition that reflects the heart and pride of our school community.
Today the school was able to congratulate and wish Van Ward luck as he heads to Hershey to compete for a State Title in wrestling. Van will start his journey to a medal Thursday at 9:00.
Good Luck Van!
Good Luck Van!
