Concessions will be available and community participation will be expected so bring the family out to "The Barn" on Friday for a great time.

As part of this Winter Ram Rumble, we also wanted to remind you that we are still accepting donations of used sports equipment for those in our community who might be in need. Those donation bins are located at USMS and in the main lobby of USHS. You will be able to bring any donated items to the Rumble as well. We hope to see you there!

The High School was disappointed that we could not have the parade honoring our Veterans today - it was too cold and chilly...so instead, we recorded a special message to YOU, our HEROES!!

See the video here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VfzHexwh8NxNxFxouD8JSjiwcgl1aJRi/view?usp=sharing

Dear Parents,

While tomorrow's parade has been canceled, we still plan to give a special tribute to the veterans who work here at Union School! (The breakfast at the ELKS is still happening).

We encourage students to wear red, white, or blue tomorrow. To recognize our staff veterans, students will be asked to stand in the hallways to clap, raise flags, or hold up the posters they've created.

It will be a wonderful way to honor their service right here in our own school. Thank you for your support!

Tomorrow November 11, 2025 Upper Sandusky Schools will be celebrating the service of veterans in our community. We will have breakfast for veterans at the Elks Lodge from 8:30 AM to 9:30 AM. We also planned to have our students line the streets of downtown for the parade that was scheduled to follow. Due to the untimely arrival of winter weather and lower temperatures we are not able to have the parade as planned. Instead, the student body of each school building will be posting their messages of support and thanks online for all to see. I am sorry for the inconvenience the weather has caused. Thanks to all our sponsors who help make the event possible.

CONGRATULATIONS goes out to several of our USHS Varsity Football players who earned All-Conference honors this season. Here is the list of those players:

1st Team All-N10
Senior Josh Heilman (WR) and (P)
Senior Ethan Lewis (LB)

2nd Team All-N10

Senior Derek Barr (OL) and (DL)
