#Unionrxi parents/guardians:

Union High School will be hosting a football game this Friday against the St. Clair Bulldogs. Due to the large number of community members attending Friday night football games and the need for all younger students to be supervised and monitored for safety purposes, all elementary and middle school students must be accompanied by an adult in order to enter the football game. Additionally, it is expected that the parent/guardian not only accompany their elementary or middle school child(ren) to the game, but they are also responsible for monitoring their behavior at all times during the duration of the game.

Supervisors at the main entrances will monitor the students entering the games. This measure is intended to ensure the safety and well-being of our students, as well as to promote a respectful and enjoyable atmosphere for everyone in attendance. Elementary and middle school students who arrive unaccompanied by a parent/guardian will be turned away at the gate regardless of whether they’ve purchased a ticket. This will be our standard practice for all high school home athletic events. We appreciate your cooperation in helping us run events that are safely supervised for all patrons and participants.

Thank you and #Uproud!
