Ukiah School District

Congratulation Class of 2023!

Almost hard to believe - but the school year is officially over and summer break has begun! We extend our thanks to all our students, parents, families, teachers, and staff for a great school year! You have contributed to a successful year of learning and growth in our district. We wish you a fantastic summer!

Last Day BBQ and Awards It's hard to believe, but the end of the year is already here! Parents and Families are invited to join us to celebrate the end of our school year, share a meal, and enjoy some last bit of fun before summer break officially begins. At noon on Wednesday, we will revive a long tradition with a BBQ of hamburgers and hotdogs, chips, watermelon, and dessert. You are welcome to add a side dish if you want to share!

Two more days left!! What a school year! This year we were able to buckle down and get lots of things to help us make next year flow even better. Thank you to everyone who helped get us through this year!

Ukiah has Amazing Teachers! This morning we celebrated the dedication, positive energy, and skills of all our staff with a shared brunch and flowers. The event was a collaboration of the Ukiah School Board and Middle School class leaders. We greatly appreciate our educators and love having them as part of our school and community!

Thursday, April 20 was the State TSA Conference. The students involved were Jordon, Shantay, Liz, Natilie and Jacob. They were involved in Technology Problem Solving, Dragster Design, and Fashion Design and Technology. Jordon, Natilie, and Shantay did an excellent job with their Fashion Design project and took home the blue banner as well as first place medals!

This year Shantay Neil and Jordon Hartzog are registered and ready to attend the National TSA Conference held in Louisville, KY. They plan to compete in Dragster Design, Senior Solar Sprint, and Board Game Design.

Ukiah HS students join others in the region to explore the job and career opportunities in our area. It's wonderful to have these important events back on our calendar and part of our curriculum. https://elkhornmediagroup.com/job-fair-is-tomorrow/
