Sharing School News and More in Patch Local Voices

Your voice. Your community.

The Patch Local Voices section can be a powerful tool for yourself, your group or your business. It's the perfect place to promote a big event coming up, voice your opinion on something you are passionate about or share tips from your career field. 

Each Saturday we will feature some of Patch's most interesting Local Voices writers, show you who is posting on Patch and how you can get started.

Sharing school news with the community

Utica Schools wants all the great things going on with the district to be shared with the community.

That's why they blog on Patch. They share important information such as UCS announces Class of 2014 graduation dates and times, special honors like More than 300 UCS students earn AP honors and really cool news such as And the Emmy goes to...UCS grad and UCS grad gets a wild opportunity.

You can follow their blog, Utica Community Schools's Blog, on Patch.
