Car riders will be held inside until buses depart at 2:50pm. Once buses have left, we will use the bus lane for car pickup. Please stay in line and pull up in front of the building.
Further - a shout-out to staff and students for a well-executed shelter-in-place during the tornado warning earlier today. Everyone was sheltered safely and accounted for within minutes (just like we practice) and stayed sheltered until the warning was lifted.
Nice work, East!

Mrs. Roberts brings care, energy, and positivity to her classroom every day, and it shows in the way her students learn and grow. We’re grateful to have her as part of our school—congratulations on this well-deserved recognition, Mrs. Roberts!


We’d also like to recognize and thank Ms. Hanners for her dedication and support in helping our students grow and showcase their creativity. Great work by all involved—we’re proud of you!

We’re sharing a few photos from our 1st grade group, but all three grade levels had a fantastic time on their visit.
A big thank you to the FFA students and Mr. McCabe for organizing this fun and engaging experience for our kids each year.





Our Kindergarten Orientation Night will be held at Unity East next week on Monday, April 13 from 6-7pm.

If you have a child who will be joining us for Kindergarten in the fall, please complete the following survey.

Know a family with an incoming kindergartener who doesn't already have kids with us?

Forecasted wind chills and significant snowfall are creating dangerously cold conditions, and for student safety, in-person classes will not be held.
At this time, this decision applies only to Monday. However, current forecasts indicate that extreme cold conditions may continue later in the week. Families may want to begin thinking ahead and making contingency plans in case additional E-Learning Days or school closures become necessary. Any further decisions will be communicated as soon as possible.
We appreciate your patience and flexibility as we continue to monitor the weather and make decisions based on student safety.
Thank you for your understanding.

Superintendent, Unity School District
