Sharing some great pictures that the Unit 4 Foundation was proud to help support.
• Emily Wellman shared pictures from the 7th Grade Mad Scientist Day on March 13th.
• Students dissected owl pellets to determine the main diet of barn owls.
It’s great to see how engaged the students are in this project and great job Mrs Wellman!

Excited to share a picture of our Unity 6th grade band students in front of all the instruments that were donated to help promote our band program. Special thanks to:
Sue Woodruff, Beth Cornwell, Mike and Donna Jansen, Donald Winget, Ruth Shupe, Liz Eyelrs, Dan Kretzer Family, Richard Loos & Marcheta Brecht to name a few for their donations. The Foundation will ensure the instruments get refurbished and placed back with the band teacher to provide to those students that wouldn't have had the opportunity other wise to participate in band.

MENDON, Ill. — From high school students preparing for solo and ensemble competitions to fifth-graders learning music for a concert, Alex Robbins’ band students keep busy.

The Unit Four Foundation has launched a community-wide Instrument Drive throughout the month of February to support music students at Unity High School and the entire school district. The initiative seeks donations of band instruments to ensure more students have the opportunity to participate in music programs regardless of financial barriers. Monetary donations will also be accepted to support instrument repairs and purchases.
Donations can be dropped off at Unity High School during regular school hours or at Mealiff Insurance & Financial Services, 402 W. Collins in Mendon from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
Alex Robbins, Unity High School Music Director, said access to instruments is critical for student success in the music program.
The Foundation will pay to have the instruments refurbished.
