Additionally, we are excited to start a new tradition this Friday as we will be "passing the torch" from our Seniors to our Kindergarteners. This event is available for all district Kindergarteners and Seniors to participate in and will take place on the football field immediately following the Senior Night festivities. We are asking anyone wishing to participate in this event to check in with Mr. Dible by 6:45 PM at the north end of the field (scoreboard). Any Seniors wishing to participate in this event are asked to meet in the south endzone at 6:45 PM. If you have any questions about this event, please contact the USHS Athletic Department or Mrs. Dible. We look forward to seeing a packed house for this event.

We are excited to welcome you back to another school year. For the Union (K-8) building parking lot we'd like to remind you of our procedures for the school year in order to first keep students safe and that we have traffic flowing in an orderly manner.
1. During AM and PM bus pickup absolutely no vehicles will be allowed to enter or exit the large parking lot. Once buses are in the parking lot all vehicles are to be parked until the buses leave. Parking is available at the smaller lot next to the football fields (corner of Hazel & Finley) if you need to leave early or pick up a student.
2. All students are to cross only at designated crosswalks. There should be no students or adults walking through the parking lots unless they are making their way to a bus. Please communicate this information to anyone picking up your child from school.
Thank you so much for your attention and care for our students.
Dr. Watson, Mrs. Parrott & Mr. Dible

A reminder that our parking lot operates in ONE direction. Please enter the lot via Houpt Drive and utilize two lanes to move around the building. The LEFT lane is for through traffic and the RIGHT Lane is for student drop off/Pick up. As you approach the Ag room the LEFT lane moves into the North parking lot. The RIGHT lane is a right turn only lane. Both will lead you to the exit onto SR 53/Sandusky Ave.
Please do NOT enter the West lot in order to exit via the SOUTH exit onto Houpt Drive. This would cause you to be driving INTO oncoming traffic! This exit will be blocked by barricades for the safety of all drivers.
Please avoid driving down the front lane of the school - this is reserved for bus pickup and dropoff and for safety reasons, we do not want traffic on that stretch of the lot when the busses are present. If you do drive on the front drive, it is also ONE WAY traveling from North to South.
Be aware of the continuing roadwork due to the sewer project which may lead to temporary road or entrance/exit closures as we start school.
Hang in there folks, we will figure it all out as we go...we are in this together!

The USHS Athletic Department would like to send a special SHOUT OUT to some pretty awesome student athletes on some pretty awesome accomplishments this past week.
First, CONGRATULATIONS goes out to Senior Goalkeeper Troy H. whose shutout win against Norwalk on Monday has given him the school record for career shutouts with 11. While Troy is now the new record holder, he has had the help of some really stellar defenses over his career so they deserve a SHOUT OUT as well. Congratulations Troy on this accomplishment.
Another CONGRATULATIONS goes out to the USHS Varsity Lady Rams Golf team who broke the team score school record with a 178 on Wednesday at home against Tiffin Columbian. The Lady Rams team of Jillian Stansbery, Cece Alspach, Addi Niederkohr, Hayden Guinther, and Avi Niederkohr broke the previous school record of 187 set just last season. Congratulations ladies on this accomplishment.
Finally, USHS athletic teams went a perfect 5-0 yesterday at five different events.
- Varsity Boys Golf (Champs of N10 West Shootout #3)
- Varsity Boys Soccer defeated Vermilion 3-1
- JV Volleyball defeated Ridgemont 2-0
- Varsity Volleyball defeated Ridgemont 3-0
- Varsity Girls Tennis defeated Calvert 3-2 for their first league win in school history!
Some great stuff going on with our fall sports teams and athletes so make sure you are catching them in action.

The path will lead you directly to the entrance gate at the new concession building, where you can purchase tickets or present a pass (N10 passes are accepted).
- Adult tickets are $8.00 and student tickets are $5.00. We do not offer a senior discounted rate. We accept cash only. The building you enter through also has our new public restrooms and our new concession stand. The concession stand will accept cash and Venmo. (ONLY the concession stand accepts Venmo. General admission is Cash Only).
- There will be a section of the stands designated for students. It will be blocked with caution tape. Feel free to take the caution tape down when several students have arrived. Students are not permitted in the end zones.
