Last night at our regularly scheduled Board of Education meeting, the Board unanimously selected Dr. Dan Kania as our 26/27 Superintendent. Dr. Kania will officially begin his role as our next Superintendent on July 1, 2026.
“I’m both thrilled and humbled for the opportunity to continue serving our district. We have the absolute best teachers and staff around and I couldn’t be more proud to serve as our next superintendent. My family and I have loved Union from the day we moved here 10 years ago and I can’t imagine living anywhere else. I thank the Board for their trust in me and I can’t wait to continue being part of the amazing work we are doing here in Union. #Uproud”
~ Dr. Dan Kania
The Board received 11 applications for the superintendent position and then the Board narrowed that candidate pool down to six to interview. The interviews were conducted in-district at Central Office last week on 10/8. The interview process consisted of three different interview teams. There was a parent team, a building staff team and a director/supervisor team. There were a total of 46 parents/staff who participated in the interviews. Each of these individuals ranked and provided specific feedback to our Board for review and consideration at the conclusion of the interviews.
“On behalf of the Board of Education, we are very pleased to know Dr. Kania will be leading our district next school year and beyond. The Board has the utmost confidence in Dr. Kania to lead our district in a manner that can make all of us proud. We thank Dr. Mabe for all he has done for our district and wish him all the best in retirement. The future for #unionrxi continues to be bright!”
~ Dr. Virgil Weideman, Board of Education President
Congratulations to Dr. Kania!

#Unionrxi parents/guardians:
Union High School will be hosting a football game this Friday against the St. Clair Bulldogs. Due to the large number of community members attending Friday night football games and the need for all younger students to be supervised and monitored for safety purposes, all elementary and middle school students must be accompanied by an adult in order to enter the football game. Additionally, it is expected that the parent/guardian not only accompany their elementary or middle school child(ren) to the game, but they are also responsible for monitoring their behavior at all times during the duration of the game.
Supervisors at the main entrances will monitor the students entering the games. This measure is intended to ensure the safety and well-being of our students, as well as to promote a respectful and enjoyable atmosphere for everyone in attendance. Elementary and middle school students who arrive unaccompanied by a parent/guardian will be turned away at the gate regardless of whether they’ve purchased a ticket. This will be our standard practice for all high school home athletic events. We appreciate your cooperation in helping us run events that are safely supervised for all patrons and participants.

*Proposition KIDS gains approval*
Today is a great day for our district and for our community! Our ballot measure, Proposition KIDS, passed with just shy of 64% of voters voting in favor versus 36% in opposition. Our community has been asking us to prioritize an Early Childhood Center and additional storm shelters. The overwhelming support of our bond issue is the perfect way of showing the community trusts the work we are doing and the positive impact our district is having on the community at large.
This is a time to celebrate and a time to acknowledge our community for the continued partnership and vote of confidence. I can’t tell you how thankful and proud I am of our district. We have some of the absolute best working on our team and our parent/guardian partnership couldn’t be stronger; the future is bright for #unionrxi.
There is a lot of work to be done now and there will be many conversations in the coming weeks/months as we take next steps in delivering on Proposition KIDS.
Again, thank you to all those who voted and all those who helped to spread the word about this important ballot initiative.
~ Proud and honored to be your Superintendent
Dr. Mike Mabe
