Our New Web Site Is LIVE!!!!!!


Our web site went live today! After 5 months of planning, editing and re-editing our site is finally up and running! While there is still about 2 solid weeks of work yet to be done, the basic layout and information areas are done. The address is http://www.urcs.org/ . The site is designed to be informative. It features our vision/mission statement, our history, the school calendar, our enrollment policies and procedures and even an animated virtual tour! There are links to this blog, our parent church Upper Room Christian World Center, our ACN fundraiser as well as other useful links pertaining to Christian Education.


Our next major project is to get Grade Quick and Edline up and running and linked to this blog and the school's web page. That will complete the school's intranet as well as give our parents and student body immediate access to students current grades, projects and assignments. We hope to have this done by April 2009.

Happy Birthday Jesus!

Below is a poem written by one of our 3rd graders:

Dear Jesus,

You are nice
just like spice.
I want you to know
how I love you so.
You are my friend and nothing can tear us apart.
I know that you made my heart.
I celebrate your birthday and so do others,
even our fathers and our mothers.
I love you for who you are,
and so do people from afar.
Thank you for giving me friends,
and your kingdom will never end.
You gave us a wonderful teacher,
and Mr. Dono a great preacher.
I know I'll be with you some day,
but soon will my aunt May.
I know your birthday is soon,
but mine's in June!
Happy Birthday!

Love,
Brianna

Mrs. Moore's English Trip


Many of my English students attended a theatrical production with me in November. We had a great time on the trip. The show was a lot of fun to watch and the kids were a lot of fun to be around!

The show was at the Patchogue Theater in Patchogue. The Chamber Commerce Theater Company was the performing company and some of the skits they presented were the following: The Most Dangerous Game, The Fall of the House of Usher, The Lady and the Tiger, and a few other classical short stories.

We truly had a great time and not to brag or anything but Upper Room Christian School's students were the best behaved, most well-mannered students there (by far). They are the best!

Middle School


The month of December is a cheerful month filled with joy, love and the spirit of giving. Our middle school is embracing this spirit with several planned charitable activities. They are writing letters to the soldiers in Iraq , creating cards for the Downey Side Families for Youth Orphanage and collecting supplies for homeless emergency kits.

Also, our entire middle school will be participating in a gingerbread contest on December 19th. The gingerbread houses will be made by the students completely from "scratch". Prizes will be awarded to the best constructed houses. The children will also be exchanging their "Secret Blesser" gifts on Dec. 19th our last day of school for the 2008 school year. As you can see the spirit of Christmas is alive and well here at Upper Room Christian School as we continue growing up in Christ spirit, soul and body.

Sincerely,
The URCS Middle School Team
