Congratulations to our UMS student of the month for February, Jackson Litherland. He was recognized at the Board of Education meeting Wednesday night.
Let's try FFA spirit days again!
All schools will be in session tomorrow, Friday 2/21/25!
We have worked with our transportation team and city/county officials and most of our school buses are able to navigate our community roads safely and efficiently. To that point, we will still have a few bus routes that need to be modified. If your student’s bus route is going to be modified, you will be contacted by First Student later this afternoon/evening or tomorrow morning. Additionally, bus pick ups may be a little slower than usual, so please be prepared for possible delays.
We will have extra personnel on hand tomorrow morning at each of our schools during arrival to assist with drop offs. Please be cautious and provide for some extra time as arrival will most likely be slower than usual.
Thank you again for your patience and flexibility over the past several days as we are excited to welcome back all our students and staff!
Be safe and stay warm!

Our amazing Union R-XI School District Social Workers are always looking for ways to help families within our district, and we are EXCITED to partner with Charity Clothing Pickup! When clearing out the closet of unwanted or outgrown clothing, please consider donating your items and helping out our distrcit at the same time.
There are 2 ways you can help ...
1) Donate t-shirts, hoodies, coats, jeans, sweatpants, and leggings directly to our Social Workers, Ashley Wilder and Maddy Weinhold.
2) Donate anything else "textiles" or make a quick drop in the Charity Clothing donations box located in the WRC parking lot @ 308 Hawthorne Dr. Please make sure all clothing is in a plastic bag. No boxes allowed.
Any profits from the Charity Clothing box will go directly to the Union R-XI School District Social Work Activities - this will help purchase clothing items/shoes that our district's children may need.
For questions, comments, or concerns email Ashley at ashley.wilder@unionrxi.org or Maddy at madison.weinhold@unionrxi.org
