Spring has sprung!
Applications for the 2025 Union Renegade Regiment Student Leadership Team close for submission tonight (Mon Mar 31) at midnight! LINK TO APPLICATION: https://www.cognitoforms.com/UnionBands/_202526UHSBandGuardStudentLeadershipApplication
On Fri Mar 28 our very own Owen Grass and Ellie Thralls were named Mr. & Miss Union for 2025! Based on teacher recommendation, academic excellence, school spirit & involvement, faculty feedback, input from the student body, and advancing from a field of 10+ semifinalists and 5 finalists, being named Mr. or Miss Union is considered the highest honor that a Union student can attain. We are particularly proud of Owen & Ellie and how they have represented the Union Bands in the context of the bigger picture of the Union community, as 2025 marks the first year since 2019 that the band program has "swept" the Mr./Miss Union crowns! Among numerous other honors and achievements, Owen and Ellie are both perennial members of the NBDA District Honor Band, multi-year members of the Union HS Wind Ensemble, multi-year earners of Superior ratings at the State level music solo contest, multi-year performers with the highly-regarded Union HS Indoor Drumline, and have served on the Renegade Regiment's Executive Student Leadership Team, a small group of highly influential leaders. The Union Bands community is overjoyed that Owen & Ellie were selected as this year's Mr. & Miss Union; we are admittedly biased, but seeing them both chosen for this honor was a "no-brainer"! CONGRATS AGAIN TO OWEN & ELLIE!
