SPECIAL PROGRAMS
​​
At UPPS we have a number of special programs that reflect our values:​​​​
​
EarthCare
Students in all of the classes participate and learn about composting, recycling, and ways that they can care for the earth. UPPS families are also invited to join the composting program. UPPS prioritizes the re-use of materials and the conservation of resources. We believe encouraging eco-friendly habits at early ages also fosters empathy and an awareness of one's impact on the world.
GrandFriends
The Transitional Fives students are matched with a senior for a 6 week intergenerational program where they eat lunch together and do an activity. GrandFriends provides a great opportunity to practice social skills and develop empathy.
Camp New Hope
The Transitional Fives class and the Fours class spend their last week of school at New Hope Camp and Conference Center. The children enjoy field games, outdoor crafts, catching tadpoles, hiking, and singing campfire songs. Our Threes classes get a taste of Camp New Hope by spending a day there.
