Congratulations to our new 2026 United Winter Homecoming Court. Please join us for the crowning on January 30, 2026 at the United vs. Leetonia game.

The theme is "Winter Wonderland". Tickets for the dance are on sale now during the student's lunch period. Tickets are $10.00 in advance and $12.00 at the door.

Today, our building was briefly evacuated due to a fire alarm triggered by a microwave in the cafeteria. There was no fire, and the situation was quickly resolved. All students are safe, and we want to commend them for doing an excellent job following procedures, exiting the building calmly, and reentering in an orderly manner.

Thank you for your continued support as we prioritize the safety of our school community.
