We are excited to welcome Mrs. Helton.

Hi Union Owls,

I would like to thank our 3rd-5th grade students and staff for participating in our recent election. A special thank you to all the candidates for the significant time and effort you invested; you all did an "OWLstanding" job, and I am so proud of each of you.

Please remember that you all possess unique leadership qualities. If you were not elected this time, I encourage you to keep striving for your goals and never give up. Hold your heads high, because there is a leader in every single one of you!

Congratulations to our 2026-2027 Student Lighthouse Team:

Elections are in full swing! 🗳️ Our students are casting their votes for the new Student Lighthouse Team. Stay tuned to see who will be taking on leadership roles this year! 💡

So, what better way to celebrate than with a little coffee & a sweet treat from Sugar & Sass! ☕🍪💕 We are SO proud of our Owls! 🦉❤️

Fridays are just better together! 🏈📣 Our WLHS cheerleaders and football players took over the morning carline to greet our future stars with big smiles, high fives, and royal door-opening service. Good luck to the team tonight—let’s bring home the W!
