Welcome to the United High School 9th Grade Campus! As your Associate Principal, I am honored to serve our dedicated educators, inspiring students, and supportive families. With 26 years in education as a classroom teacher, assistant principal, and instructional leader, my core belief remains that every student possesses unique potential, and children thrive when schools and families work together as true partners. We are committed to maintaining a safe, welcoming, and nurturing environment focused on academic excellence, strong communication, and upholding our P.B.I.S. expectations—encouraging our students to be Honorable, take Ownership, be Responsible, and Never give up to be Successful. I look forward to an outstanding year of growth and achievement for all of our Longhorns.
Gear up, Longhorn Nation! Fall testing season is here, and United High School is ready to show what Orange Pride is all about. Our Longhorns kick off October strong with the PSAT/NMSQT, charging toward college readiness and chasing National Merit recognition. Throughout the autumn semester, students keep pushing the pace on the TSIA to lock in college-level benchmarks in reading, writing, and math. To close out the semester in early December, Longhorns step up to conquer the STAAR EOC exams—tackling English I & II, Algebra I, Biology, and U.S. History to clear those vital graduation milestones. Stay tuned to the UHS counseling center for exact schedules and room assignments, and let's bring that legendary Longhorn excellence to every exam! Hook 'em!
The United High School 9th Grade Campus was established relatively recently as part of the United Independent School District's strategy to address increasing enrollment and alleviate overcrowding at the main United High School campus. Initially, a new campus right next to the main building opened in August 2009 for the 2009-2010 school year to house freshman students. However, the current, dedicated United High School 9th Grade Campus, often referred to separately and with its own Associate Principal, officially opened its doors in August 2017 to focus entirely on the educational transition and unique needs of ninth-grade students. This configuration is part of a wider district model that utilizes separate ninth-grade campuses for its high schools.
