Student Updates for August

Dear Students,

We hope this message finds everyone having enjoyed the summer! We have been able to enjoy some time off, to start thinking about ways to make UHS better in the coming year, and to finalize some details that will come with the addition of a new grade to UHS. For the most part, students will not see many changes - classes are pretty much meeting in the same places, some teachers classrooms may have moved, and there will be a fourth lunch. But overall we think those of you who are returning to school will not feel too many changes.

• One thing to be aware of: we have updated everyone’s locker assignment. Some individuals indicated that they no longer really use a locker, which we appreciate, but in the interest of configuring things in the best way, we reassigned all lockers. Please check iStudent to make sure that you are going to your new and correct locker.

• Also, schedules have been released, and a link was emailed home to parents in case there were mistakes. For many of you, you were able to meet with guidance in the spring, so there will not be many updates. If you do believe there is an error, please follow your schedule as it is listed until you have made an appointment with guidance. (The form is linked here to generate a change).

• In terms of lunch schedule, it is linked here and will be emailed again before school starts.
• For those of you who wish to purchase insurance for iPads, which we recommend, the link can be found via FamilyID.

• The mandatory meeting for athletics is scheduled for Thursday, August 16 at 7:00 p.m. All student-athletes and parents are required to attend. Information on fall practices will be shared at that time.

• Finally, as we get ready for the 2018-19 school year, we ask that you start to recall our core values and what it means to be a SPARTAN. We look forward to welcoming you home to UHS in a few weeks!

See you soon,

Mr. Rubin and Mr. DiMeglio
