Page 20 while minimizing the impact on student learning. However, the severi­ ty of the budget reductions required vacated positions to be left unfilled, professional training to be cur­ tailed, and adjustments to be made in every site and department. With no relief in sight by the end of the year, staff members were advised that planning for 2003-2004 anticipated a reduction of about one h dred teaching and support positions. Even in the face of pervasive budget worries, morale and dedication remained strong. The 2002 6A State Championship in football set the tone for the year and a record number of National Merit Scholars, talented fine arts students, and caring contributors to their community kept things going in a positive direction. Union programs were highlighted for Awards of Excellence in many areas including alternative educa­ tion, the district webpage, the Native American pro­ gram and financial reporting.

  • 2001-2002 Annual Report Union Public Schools Graphics Have Been Removed for This Web Version
    2001-2002 Annual Report Union Public Schools Graphics have been removed for this web version Introduction Union Public Schools is a rapidly growing suburban, K-12 district in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The 28-square-mile area that comprises Union is unique in that it does not encompass a township, but rather incorporates within its boundaries much of southeast Tulsa and the northwest portion of nearby Broken Arrow. The school system acts as a unifying organization within the community, providing activities for its families and a sense of pride, support and identity for its patrons. When Union was founded in 1919, it combined four small, rural communities and had only four students in its graduating class. A two-story brick building housed all of its classes, K-12. In the 1980s, Tulsa’s residential and commercial building began booming toward the southeast, and Union’s student population grew along with it. Today the district serves more than 13,300 students in its eleven elementary sites, the Sixth/Seventh Grade Center, the Eighth Grade Center, the Intermediate High School, the Alternative School and Union High School. All have State Department of Education and North Central Association accreditation. Thanks to a supportive community, the district has been able to fund computers, local- and wide-area networking and other instructional technology to enhance reading, language, math, science, music and writing skills. Every school has media specialists, nurses and counselors. Programs for gifted students and students with special needs are also offered at every grade level, as are music, art and physical education. Elementary school students and their parents have the option of following Union’s Continuous Learning Calendar (CLC or year-round program) or the Traditional Learning Calendar (TLC or 9-month school year).
