The Language Arts Department at Union Park Middle School focuses on all areas of communication. While reading and writing provide the foundation for these skills, we also focus on listening, speaking, and communicating effectively in all aspects of life. We strive to prepare students for the rigors of high school and college classes in the areas of literature, writing, and grammar.
