Information about Union Springs High School

Welcome to the Wolfpack news!!

Welcome to the Wolfpack news!!

Communication from school to home is so important. I remember when I was in school, my backpack would be filled with notes and messages that I "forgot" to get to my parents. There are so many events and informational items that are shared regularly, and having a high schooler at home, I know I usually do not find out about these items until the last minute.

While we continue to grow our presence on Twitter, we know that not all our families are Twitter users. So the High School's main office will send out the "Wolfpack News" every few weeks to celebrate our students, give information, and help grow school-to-home communication. The Wolfpack News will be emailed and posted on our website and Twitter.



Thank you for your support, and enjoy "Wolfpack News."

9th Grade Orientation

9th Grade Orientation

On August 25th, we were excited to welcome to the high school the Class of 2026. The event has two distinct concepts.

The first was having student leaders welcome and build community with the new high schoolers. The 11th and 12th-grade leaders were grouped with 9th graders and led them through team building and information gathering. These groups will be utilized throughout the school year to continue to build the concept of connectedness.

The second was allowing the parents to get some information about the transition to high school. Mr. Dentel had some topics to discuss, and parents were also given a survey in advance that they could suggest topics.
