Are you looking for schools where children receive individual attention with a low pupil to teacher ratio? Are you looking for a safe environment for your child? Are you looking for a small, personalized high school that will offer your child as many as ten opportunities to receive dual high school and college credit? Are you looking for a school that has a 2:1 student to computer ratio? Do you want to be able to access your children's grades and attendance anytime day or night? Are you looking for a school that offers one of the most comprehensive marketing/business programs and a complete radio and television station? If so, Randolph Eastern has it all! Check out each building's web page by clicking on the links under "Our Schools" on the right side of this page.
We are very proud of our three schools, which all offer exceptional opportunities for students. North Side Elementary, which houses K-5, offers an outstanding literacy program, which emphasizes phonics as well as comprehension. We have Reading Recovery teachers who offer services to children needing that extra something to become better readers. We offer full day kindergarten for all students. Our emphasis on literacy and this extra start has helped keep our state testing scores high.
West Side Middle School truly exemplifies the middle school concept. Students take classes with a team of teachers who get to know them quite well both academically and extra-curricularly. Students have opportunities for learning piano keyboarding, may start formal band and choir in sixth grade, and have opportunities for drama and athletics.We have an outstanding counseling program with both in-school as well as community-based services at all schools, but we find this particularly helpful during the sometimes difficult "tween" years.
Union City Community High School offers a full array of academics, extra-curricular activities, fine arts, and sports. Our high school students have a wonderful opportunity to study alternative energy up close and personal. We have our own test wind turbine, solar panels and hybrid electric school bus. We are currently constructing a 1 MW turbine that will produce enough energy to be sold at a $3 million dollar profit for our school over the next twenty years. Through the Indiana University ACP Program, students can leave high school with college credit in English, math and sciences. We have a radio and TV program that broadcasts through the community cable station. Through partnerships with other county schools and the Muncie Area Career Center, our students can receive specialized training ranging from health care to computer networking. UCCHS has the highest graduation rate in Randolph County and the surrounding area at 90.5%. WE are proud of our students and our staff.
Welcome to our web site, but better yet, visit us in person. We exemplify the saying "Bigger isn't always better."
Cathy Stephen, Superintendent
The nation’s first converted hybrid electric school bus is now in service!
Productive Concepts, Inc. (PCI) has handed off the nation’s first converted hybrid electric school bus to Randolph Eastern School Corporation, another success in Randolph County’s quest to be a state leader in green energy and alternative fuels initiatives. The official transfer of the first converted hybrid electric school bus took place on Saturday, November 15, at Union City Community High School.
Senator Richard Lugar was on hand for the transition. “We’re excited to join PCI and Randolph Eastern Schools to celebrate this first-in-the-nation event. School buses are ideal candidates for hybrid electric technology given their generally low speeds and constant stopping, and Rob Lykins and his PCI team have steadfastly worked with the Indiana Department of Education and the Indiana State Police to ensure the continued high level of safety in the hybrid buses,” Lugar said.
Randolph Eastern School Corporation was recently named an Exemplary School Corporation by the Indiana Department of Education and was the 2007 Union City IN/OH Chamber of Commerce Business of the Year. The School Corporation is featured on the Indiana Department of Education website www.doe.state.in.us on the Learn Green, Live Green link for both their partnership with PCI on the hybrid school bus project, but also for their innovation with alternative energy as an energy solution for the school, as well as an educational project.
The Randolph County Solid Waste Management District awarded Randolph Eastern School Corporation a grant to purchase the first hybrid system. The RCSWMD understood the importance of having the “beta test bus” with a local school corporation and are committed to Randolph County’s quest to be a state leader in green energy initiatives.

All parents want to help their child succeed in school and in life. Here are a few tips:
1. Children do better in school when their parents are involved. Stay in touch with your child's teachers.
2. Attendance is directly related to student achievement.
3. Give your child the tools to manage time. Encourage them to follow a routine when possible, plan ahead, and allow enough time for projects.
4. Encourage your child to show respect to all they come in contact with. Put things away, pay attention to the teacher, be on time, and use good manners.
5. Resist doing things for your child that they can or should do themselves. However, they still need support and encouragement.

Please do not send your child to school with a fever (should be 24 hours fever free without using fever reducing medicine), vomiting, or diarrhea. The number one preventative to any infection is washing your hands.

An H1N1 Flue Update For Randolph Eastern Families:
Indiana has been sporadic in its cases of the H1N1 virus. We are already hearing about several confirmed cases in surrounding counties, so we can assume that the virus is circulating among us. The good news is that the H1N1 virus has been a much milder disease than what was originally predicted and that we are being proactive in our approach to dealing with the virus. Communications, Education & Routine Cleaning are important keys to navigating our way through this flu season.
The Center for Disease Control recommends 4 main ways you and your family can keep from getting sick with the flu at school and home:
1) Practice good hand hygiene by washing your hands often with soap and water, especially after coughing or sneezing. Alcohol-based hand cleaners are also effective. Hand washing for children should be thorough. Teach your child to sing Happy Birthday while s/he washes his hands.
2) Cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. If you don’t have a tissue, cough or sneeze into your elbow or shoulder, not your hands. Keep your hands away from your face – germs spread that way.
3) Stay home if you or your child is sick for at least 24 hours after there is no longer a fever or signs of fever (without the use of fever-reducing medicine). Keeping sick students at home means that they keep their viruses to themselves rather than sharing them with others.
4) Get your family vaccinated for seasonal flu and 2009 H1N1 flu when vaccines are available.
All of the Randolph County Schools will be meeting on frequently with county health officials and St. Vincent Randolph Hospital. We will keep you informed of any new procedures, concerns, and particularly when and where vaccines will become available.
Sincerely,
Cathy A. Stephen, Superintendent
