Sign the Commitment to Community Health
Director Vince Durnan shared the following letter with USN parents on Wednesday, July 27. Families should acknowledge the school's Commitment to Community Health for each student through an electronic signature in Magnus. Faculty & staff should sign in PayCom.
Dear USN families,
You've probably seen a reference from me to a Commitment to Community Health as a way we can count on one another when school resumes. That document can be found within the secure Magnus site that maintains student records for access by our Health Room staff. Log in to usn.org with your USN parent account, and find the Magnus Health box on the Resources page. Parents with multiple children should be prepared to do this multiple times such that each child is documented, no matter the grade division.
You'll find a request for an e-signature as a statement of support for some essential principles, and I'd encourage a kitchen-table type conversation, point by point, with your family. Maybe print it out and tape it to the refrigerator as a reminder. We can and must each do our part if we expect conditions out there to improve— that much is increasingly clear.
If reading through that compact you encounter questions, or if for some reason in good conscience you find yourself at odds with what we're asking of you, please come straight to me. It's time to start imagining being at school, thinking about a 14-day runway of preparation, and we need you there in support.
Grateful for the spirit that brings us together,
Vince Durnan
Director

Back-to-school Popsicle Party canceled
Mother Nature is not cooperating for our annual Popsicle Party. Depending on which weather app you use, actual and feels-like temperatures are 98 to 101 and higher. Under these conditions, we would limit student activities, so, in the interest of everyone's health and well-being, we are going to cancel our gathering at the River Campus. There is just not enough shade and certainly no air conditioning to bring relief to hundreds of USN families. Thank you for understanding. We look forward to seeing you in a few days for the start of our new school year.Read More -
