We have much to celebrate this week at UHS!
Student Achievements!
Congratulations are in order for a couple of our UHS students for their individual accomplishments this week! Carlee Veinotte competed in Oklahoma City at the Morgan Grand National and World Championship horse show Competition, and she earned the distinction of being a world champion in the Hunter Pleasure Youth class, including competitors aged 21 and under!
On Thursday, Luke Esposito first hole in one in recent Uxbridge golf history, the achievement coming on the fifth hole at Blissful Meadows.
On Thursday, longtime Uxbridge music educator Kathleen Penza was honored by the MIAA and National Federation of High Schools as the Massachusetts recipient of the Heart of the Arts award. The Award is given annually to one recipient who meets this criteria:
· Seeks to recognize those individuals who exemplify the ideals of the positive hearts of the arts that represent the core mission of education-based activities.
· May be given in recognition of a specific act or for an activity of longer duration.
· Covers a plethora of performing arts disciplines: Music, Speech, Debate, Theatre, Visual Arts and other performing arts activities.
· The recipient could be any student, adult or group associated with the school’s performing arts program.
We are so proud of the work Mrs. Penza does with our school and community - be on the lookout for video footage!

School Council
Our School Council has a couple of open seats on it for parent members. We are looking for parent representation from the Classes of 2024 and 2025. Our School Council helps drive school improvement planning and provides a mechanism for us to share goals and opportunities with a collaborative group of students, parents, community members and educators.
If you are interested, please contact Mr. Rubin directly via mrubin@uxbridge.k12.ma.us.
Final Word
Much is being written and shared about the current surge in cases of COVID-19 across the state. We realize that we have many safety procedures in place here at UHS. We do, however, realize that the ongoing increases in numbers puts the school and our community in a precarious position. We ask that you please do your part and remind students to follow all safety guidelines, particularly when away from school. We certainly do not want to compromise any opportunities for the coming year.
