Uniontown USD 235 - Winning by Education

Please have conversations with your students about their plans for the dress-up day at WBE on Friday, October 31. Encourage fun costumes and remind them that what they wear to school might be different than what they wear later that evening. Costumes that depict harm, incite horror, and/or interfere with a student's ability to participate in the daily routines of school will not be allowed.

WBE Dress-up Day Guidelines:
No inflatables
No masks
No blood
No gore
No horror
*Makeup and hair color may be applied at home, but not at school.

The WBE Fall Book Fair is coming! Open during school hours and at the Family Stem Night on Nov. 5th from 5:15 p.m.-7:15 p.m.

Books always make great Christmas presents!

We would love for you to stop by the newly remodeled ag shop to see that new space and learn about how it is being used.

See you tonight, October 23rd, any time between 6:00 and 7:00 pm.

Open Position- We are looking for a hard-working individual willing to serve as a driver, taking a student to a specialized program in Pittsburg, then work as a paraprofessional in that program during the school day, before returning that student home. If you are interested, please email Vance Eden at veden@uniontown235.org.

Pay would be $19.85 for the drive time and $14.50 for the classroom time.

Free- The District is looking for anyone interested in two used modular buildings. Our new PK will be constructed in this area, and these buildings will need to be removed between the dates of November 15th and December 15th, 2025. In order to claim these buildings, you will need to bring a $1,000 deposit to the USD 235 board of education office and agree to the associated terms. The deposit will be returned if that individual removes the buildings and adequately cleans up after themselves within the designated timeframe. Questions can be directed to Vance Eden via veden@uniontown235.org or 620-224-2350.
