Union-Scioto Local is excited to announce that we will be partnering this semester with the non-profit Vision To Learn to provide eye exams and glasses at no cost to our students or families. Please review information being sent home with your student regarding this service/program. If you DO NOT want your child to partake in these vision services, please sign and return the opt-out consent form by February 3, 2025. If your child had an eye exam in the last year, but you need help with ordering glasses or would like a replacement/backup pair ordered at no cost, please send a copy of their current prescription to the office for the school nurse.

All-call for 4:00 pm today! Our Vision: By inspiring greatness, all students will realize their worth and potential. Our Mission: At Union-Scioto School District, students will learn, lead, and make a difference. Our Motto: Today’s Learners, Tomorrow’s Leaders. Tonight is Military Night at our basketball game. All veterans and active military men and women get in free tonight and will be honored at the end of the JV game. Dinner will be provided in the auditeria beginning at 4:30-6:00 pm. Thank you to all who have and continue to serve! P/T Conferences are scheduled for Thursday, February 6 in the evening and Friday, February 7 in the morning. No school for students on Friday, February 7, 2025 We are pleased to host the District 16 High School Solo and Ensemble event at our Middle School and High School this Saturday, January 25, 2025. We look forward to welcoming participants from across the region and would like to extend our appreciation to our music department for their efforts in organizing this event. As a result of multiple waiver and calamity days being utilized, we are approaching a point where make-up days may become necessary if this trend continues. Should make-up days be required, we are considering the following options: Monday, February 17 (Presidents’ Day), Friday, March 14 (currently scheduled as a district work day with no school for students), Thursday, May 22 (an early release day, which could be extended to a full day of school), and adding additional days at the end of the school year. This Monday, January 27, 2025, we MAY HAVE a 2-hour delay or cancellation due to a needed repair of a water line leak affecting our school district and our local prison, CCI. If a 2-hour delay or school cancellation is necessary, I will announce this weekend sometime on Sunday. As we learned from the coffee bean presentation from Damon West before we left on break always try to be a coffee bean!! Damon shared the metaphor of a coffee bean to explain how we can choose to respond to challenges and adversity in life. Just like a coffee bean transforms hot boiling water into something positive and valuable, we can transform difficult situations into opportunities for growth, change, and improvements. Instead of letting challenges negatively impact or defeat us, we can choose to remain positive, resilient, and focused on the good, influencing our environment and those around us. Being a coffee bean means taking control of our mindset and actions, and using our strength and positivity to create a better, more uplifting environment, no matter the circumstances. Thank you Damon West for sharing such an impactful message! One more special thanks to all of our sponsors for supporting the event for our students, staff, and community!
