Fifth and sixth graders enjoyed eating truffula seeds!! "Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not. ~The Lorax

Just a heads up so you can plan accordingly for tomorrows commute to and from school - beginning at 8:00 AM the railroad company will be working at the railroad crossing on Division near the 4 way lights so it will be closed. You may need to plan to go around via 59th to maple to Division in the morning. Depending on how quickly they progress they will be moving northbound towards the 59th and then 29th crossing throughout the day but we have no way of predicting how quickly that may move. Just know we will all need to remain flexible as they work through this project tomorrow. Thank you for your patience and understanding as they work towards improving the structure of their railway system.

We have had a minor disturbance on campus. With our SRO scheduled to be out today our UCPD were already providing us extra support throughout the day. In addition they responded promptly and efficiently as always when our alert went out. The situation was resolved within minutes and we are currently back to business as usual. Thank you to our local authorities for always working diligently to keep our students and faculty safe no matter how big or small the concern.

Sixth grade kicked off Dr.Seuss/Read Across America Week by reading to 2nd grade and Pre-K today.

Happy Friday! Please enjoy another installment of Senior Spotlights! Next up.... Rylee Zacharias and Alyson Newman.

Pre-K - 4 will be celebrating Read Across America/Dr. Suess next week!

Dear Parents, Students, and Community Members,
We are proud to congratulate our boys' basketball team on advancing to the area tournament. Their hard work has earned them the opportunity to compete this Friday, and we are excited to support them as they continue their postseason run.
To ensure our student-athletes can fully participate in both events, we will reschedule the National Honor Society Induction Ceremony originally planned for 11:00 am. The ceremony will now take place at 9:30 am on Friday.
We appreciate your flexibility and understanding as we work to celebrate all of our students' achievements, both academic and athletic. We look forward to honoring our new inductees and cheering on our basketball team in the area tournament. Thank you for your continued support of our school and students.
Mrs. Pregler

In preparation for our boys and girls bringing home WINS today we are actively working on plans to take a pep bus tomorrow (grades 7-12 only) to support them. Many of the students may have been involved in the preliminary decisions about doing so today but many barriers conflicted with today's schedule. We have fewer barriers and other activities going on tomorrow so want to offer this opportunity to our families for tomorrow. Times will not be determined until after today's games are over. I will post the specifics as soon as I have them. However to get in the bus we will need a signed permission slip from parents and guardians. To make this easier on families we will send and offer them in a variety of ways. (1) I will leave a stack in the elementary vestibule that you can sign and leave there (2) we will have copies available when students are dropped off at bus (3) I will post a copy of it when I post the specific times that you can print and send with your child and (4) I will send out an email to all parents that you can fill out and send back to me or print sign and send with your child. Spaces are limited so it would be excessively helpful if you could drop student names in comments if you already know they would potentially be going so we can plan accordingly for drivers busses etc. Students will also need to bring $10 for entry fee and any concession money they may need as well as money to eat on as it could be a long day. Please drop those names asap so I can accommodate as many as possible Let's go show our TIGER love to our teams! 💙🐯💪 EDIT:Both teams won. Pep bus will leave from bus barn at 10:45 following directly behind activity bus as it goes by. Please respond by 10:00 PM TONIGHT via email, text or drop a comment here so I can see if we have enough interest! Let's go Tigers!

We would like to invite the community to the National Honor Society Induction Ceremony. We hope to see you there!

It's time for more Senior Spotlights!! This time we have Jacob Wilson and Jaymie Hillman!

I received a message this morning from the host site (Varnum Admin) from last nights games. They said that the UNION CITY fanbase was top notch and class act. They also wanted to thank us for picking up the trash after the games. They also complimented both teams and the amazing coaches for hard fought games. It is always great to hear from other school districts Admin bragging on our very own kids and fans! We got a lotta fight left in us....come out and support the Tiger basketball teams Friday at 1pm ( girls) and 2:30 (boys) back again at Varnum. Opponents will be determined Thursday night. Tiger Pride !
