4th Grade Graduates
You should have received an informational sheet sharing some requests to celebrate your child. These include 1 baby picture (with clothes) and up to 15 Union pictures. Please view the list of requirements for the pictures. These can be emailed to unionpto@zcs.k12.in.us by May 6. Please include in the email the child's first and last name along with any other names of Union students if possible. A wonderful keepsake is in the making!
