🐾 Gearing up for Cougar Days 🐾

Posted Date: 07/20/26 (09:00 AM)


Before the first bell rings, we want every incoming 8th and 9th grader to feel confident and ready for the new school year – that's what Cougar Days is all about! Join us on August 18-20 to get familiar with everything before the rush of the first day.

What to bring: 

  • Please remember to bring the paperwork that was sent home. 

  • A friendly reminder: a parent or guardian must accompany their student for Cougar Days.

What you'll do while you're here:

  • Pick up your class schedule and take your school picture

  • Set up your lunch account and turn in any remaining forms

  • Take a tour of the building so you know where everything is

  • Try out your locker before day one

  • Get your official student ID

  • Pick up a draft of your class schedule

  • Learn about PTSA and how to get involved

  • Check out your Chromebook

We can't wait to welcome our Cougars back and help make this transition smooth and stress-free. See you there! Contact Mrs. Lee (christylee@upsd83.org) or Mr. Kelly with questions (ckelly@upsd83.org).
