  • Wednesday 9/9 we will hold a meeting for those that are able to help with this year's University Classic. This is a huge event and fundraiser for us and we need support from all parents! No matter what your availability is, there is plenty to help with. Please help! Sign up for the Classic will be coming soon!
  • Monday 9/14 Band Parent Meeting 7pm. Our season is in full swing now! This meeting will get you lots of information for the season, the classic, and we will be going "Live" and unveiling the new online accounting system and new UHSBand.com website! Students will be getting their site login information and a demonstration of the new site will be shown as well. Thank you to Ray Malanga who has put in countless hours creating the new website and inventing a new accounting program for us.
  • Be Advised. The school is charging for parking at the home football games this year. I believe the parking is $2.00.

    See everyone on Friday, Go Cougars!
