WELCOME BACK UC!

Even though summers at Union Catholic are never really quiet, there is nothing like the first month of school... the building is sparkling, our summer projects complete, and our students are back. The building is back to how it should be, filled with students happy to see each other after their summer off.

The environment this year seemed to be especially electric! As each class came in for orientation, their excitement over the improvements spread. You could hear them talking in the halls…”Have you seen the new Tradition Meets Tomorrow Hallway? It’s fabulous!” “How about the new physics lab and new bathrooms??” UC students take great pride in their campus and it shows with how proud they are each time an improvement is made.

UC students aren’t just proud of their campus, but their sports teams as well! What a great way to start the fall season with big wins in soccer and cross country not to mention the freshman, JV and Varsity volleyball wins at RC – the Blue Crew, with painted faces and chests cheered their teams to victory!

If you’d like to meet some of the UC faculty, coaches, athletes, students and yes…The Blue Crew…then stop by our Open House on October 2nd at 7PM. Can you see yourself in Blue & White?? Register for the UC open house at http://www.ucevents.org/. and receive a free Blue & White UC t-shirt the night of open house.

BTW…I happen to be at the Varsity Volleyball game and couldn’t help but get caught up in the “blue & white” spirit so I’ve included a short clip of the winning volley!
