Attention Student Drivers🚗💨

Planning to park on campus or paint your senior spot next school year? Read carefully—parking paperwork is moving 100% digital this year!
Everything will be handled through School Cash Online (SCO). Here is what you need to know:
➡️100% Digital: When you or your parents log in to SCO, you’ll be prompted to read the parking agreement and upload a copy of your valid driver's license, current proof of insurance, and vehicle registration.
➡️Upload First, Pay Second: You won't be able to submit payment on SCO until all your required documents are uploaded. Once documents are uploaded, the option to pay will appear.
➡️Paying with Cash? Please stop by the front office with your payment of $45 (exact change, please). Once that is done, your SCO account will show a zero-dollar Parking Permit that you will select so that you can upload your files.
➡️Hang Tag Pickup: Parking hang tags will only be handed out once we verify that none of your uploaded paperwork is expired. This will not be a same-day service
➡️Painting your Spot? Class Dues must be paid; painting fee is $25, paid in SCO or to Ms. Short. Spot assignments are first come, first served. Paint and Supplies are not supplied. Painting sessions are Aug 1 and Aug 8 from 7 until 11.

📅 Mark Your Calendars – Important Dates:
July 27th: Class Dues go live on SCO
July 28th: Parking Permits & Senior Spot Painting go live on SCO

Get those documents ready so you're good to go when it opens!

It is with deep sadness that we announce the sudden passing of Ben Nash, the heart of our AICE program and dedicated educator at Umatilla High School. Mr. Nash was an essential part of the Bulldog family. Throughout his 22 years in Lake County, he helped change the lives of thousands as a teacher, coach, mentor, and friend. His impact on our school and our students will not be forgotten. Our thoughts and sincerest condolences are with his wife Melissa and his family during this time. Thank you Mr. Nash for a life well lived. Your Legacy will live on in the lives you have touched!

The UHS Summer Travel Series invites Umatilla High School students, families, and alumni to travel together on an incredible 10-day adventure throughout France!
This is more than a trip. It's a chance to see the world beyond the classroom, make lifelong memories with friends and family, and experience a destination that most people only read about in books.
The best part? Nearly everything is included in the cost of the trip: airfare, hotels, transportation, guided tours and attractions, educational experiences, and most meals. The only things you'll need to budget for are a few meals and souvenirs.
Every year, people hear about opportunities like this and think, "Maybe next time." Then they see everyone else's photos. They hear everyone else's stories. And they wish they had gone. Don't let that be you.
