East Union Community Schools

East Union is in need of individuals interested in Officiating JH and JV basketball this winter. Due to low Officiating numbers in the area, we currently don't have any officials available to work our home games.

Officials must be certified. If you, or anyone you know is interested in becoming certified to officiate our home JH/JV basketball games, please let Nate know at nmccollough@eastunionschools.org.

Mrs. Kendrick and her Field Biology class took a trip to the Blank Park Zoo. 🐾 Students had the incredible opportunity to meet with zoo employees during a career panel. 🐾 They then toured the zoo, discovering how Blank Park Zoo supports both local and international conservation efforts to protect wildlife and habitats. #handsonlearning #eaglepride
