Friday night lights are back! The Broncos kicked off the season with a 35-6 victory over Horlick. 💪🔥 Huge thanks to our spirited student section for bringing the energy, and it was great to see our new principal, Mr. Blair, along with associate principals Mrs. Hegeman and Mr. Jones, cheering on the team. What a way to start the season! 🏈 #BroncoFam


👋 Welcome to the Bronco Family! Today our new staff kicked off the year with orientation — learning about the many great things at UGHS, touring the building, and wrapping up with lunch alongside their mentors. We’re excited to have them on our team! #BroncoFam



JV Football fans attending the Horlick game this Thursday, August 21st @ 4:15pm please know you will have to purchase a ticket in advance. Link: https://events.hometownticketing.com/boxoffice/rusd/L2VtYmVkL2V2ZW50LzIx
Breaking Ground on Our Future
Rain couldn’t stop us from celebrating a milestone for Union Grove High School!
On July 30, we kicked off our referendum projects inside, hearing from key leaders including Diane Skewes (School Board President), Tom Johnson (Superintendent), Steve Wicklund (Village President), and representatives from JP Cullen and Plunkett Raysich Architects.
When the skies cleared, we grabbed our shovels for some ceremonial dirt-turning and snapped a few memorable photos. The real sunshine? Ice cream from Community State Bank’s Cruiser—guaranteed smiles all around.
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, and to Broncos Media and Paul Vassalotti for capturing the day.
