From The Principal
Dear Falcon Families,
As I am sure you are aware, an emergency order was issued by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. The order suspended both athletics and extra-curricular activities for 9-12 grade students. As a result, these school activities are on hold at the present time.
UCS graduating seniors are invited to apply for the 2021 Superintendent’s Scholarship awards program.
The scholarships are funded with proceeds from the Utica Community Schools Foundation for Educational Excellence and other sources.
Online applications will go live on Tuesday, December 1, 2020. Students are required to submit a copy of their high school transcript as well as receive one recommendation from a teacher, school counselor, administrator or non-family member. The individual making the recommendation will need to submit an online appraisal.
Please encourage students to complete the online application available on December 1 at: www.UticaK12.org/SuperintendentScholarship or on the UCS home page under “Students” in the mid-menu on the center of the page. The deadline to submit the completed application and appraisal is 11:59 p.m. on Wednesday, January 6, 2021.

We recently implemented our Student Support Time (SST) built into the schedule to provide students’ time to request one-on-one support with teachers, counselors or administrators. Students can message their teachers via TEAMs, Schoology, or email to set those appointments. This is an excellent opportunity for students to ask questions, get caught up or get some small group or individual support.
The December High School Calendar can be found here.
