Union Grove Elementary School

Kindergarten Takeover Day took place at UGES on October 18. Students from Union Grove High School visited the kindergarten classrooms to teach students some lessons that they prepared in their child development class. The kindergartners learned about rhyming, the vowel A/a, shapes, and wrote about fall! Thank you to all of the high school students for joining us on this special fun-filled day!

Good luck to our girls basketball/cheerleading teams as they travel to Randall for the first game of the season TONIGHT. GO PONIES!
