Today we celebrate our awesome Dean of Students Mr. Kuechenmeister! 🎉 We appreciate his dedication to supporting, guiding, and empowering our students. Thank you!
We’re excited to share that United South Central Schools will benefit from Minnesota’s latest round of stop-arm camera grants! Thanks to this support, we’ll be able to equip all of our school buses with new cameras that help ensure students get to school safety. This is a big win for student safety—and for our entire school community. We’re grateful for the opportunity to take another step in protecting our kids as they travel to and from school each day. https://www.cbsnews.com/amp/minnesota/news/minnesota-school-bus-stop-arm-camera-grants-2025/

In Speech News: Jaelyn Stangler was the Gopher Conference Craftsmanship Winner! This individual proved dedication to the craft of Speech throughout the season by showing up to practices, finding additional practice time, and dedicating themselves to attending Meets and honing their skills. As one of our Captains, she has shone up and truly supported the team.
The JWP Meet has always been the time to reflect on the season, and decide how it will end. We had four inidivudals that were very close to NIETOC Nationals this year. They could still have a chance, but our sights are set on making it to State. That being said, I'd like to congratulate Emma Johnson, Joshua Brooks, Danyelle Dickson, and Maxwell Schull for being one step away from Nationals. If they can get this close, watch what they can do at Sections April 11th!
March 18 - 21 is Spring Week at USC, and the Student Government has been working hard to plan a fun week of activities. See the attached image for our school-wide dress-up days!
USC's Spring 5-12 Band Concert is coming up next week! We encourage you to join director Parker Haug and our talented members of the band for a night of entertainment on March 18th at 7pm in the High School Auditorium.
