Union Elementary School Caregivers Alliance
All families are welcome!
The UES Caregivers Alliance (UESCA) is a collective of caregivers who support a welcoming, inclusive UES community. We provide support for all caregivers, educators, staff, and family-centered school activities.
Ways to Participate in the Alliance
Join our monthly meetings (details below) to plan events, discuss budget requests, and brainstorm ways to provide support to caregivers and educators.
Follow UESCA activity on our Slack channel where we do much of our planning and communication between meetings (Slack app sign up required).
To share ideas, questions, or get in touch, email us at ues.families@gmail.com. Sign up for the e-newsletter here.
Check out the UESCA Google Drive, where you can access materials including our values, budget, and meeting notes.
Volunteer with us.
School Year Priorities
Based on your feedback, UESCA will be focusing on four (4) areas this 2023-2024 school year:
Advocating on behalf of families and students
Organizing staff appreciation activities
Coordinating free, fun community events for UES families
Funding programs and supplies for kids during the school day (in coordination with the school)
Monthly Meetings
We meet every third Thursday of the month. These meetings allow us to plan activities and events throughout the year. A zoom link and meeting location will be shared prior to the meeting. Can't make it? No problem! You can follow along with our meeting notes and be a part of our Slack channel.
November 30, 2023 (6:30-7:30pm) at the UES cafeteria
We’ll focus on food coordination for this year’s Lip Sync event (January 19, 2024). Childcare is available at the meeting.
All UESCA events, meetings, activities, and decision-making processes will be available, open and accessible to all. Read more about our core values here.
