Congratulations to the United Local Band on their fantastic performance at Disney World! The students represented their community and school very well. Thank you to the United Band Boosters, Chaperones, Band Staff, Students, and anyone else who helped make this trip a success!
Help spread the word! United High School Yearbook has their own Facebook page. Liking and following their page is a great way to keep parents and students informed. Especially seniors, so they can submit their senior photos, baby photos, etc.
United Local Schools extends our deepest condolences to the Salem City School District and the entire Salem community on the loss of Superintendent Sean Kirkland and former Superintendent Dr. Joseph Shivers. Both leaders dedicated their lives to education and made a lasting impact on the students, staff, and communities they served. Their leadership, commitment, and care for others will not be forgotten.
