ULYSSES, KS — July 30, 2026 — Hickok Elementary School campus and grounds will close today, July 30, 2026, at 2:00 PM for the remainder of the day.
The Ulysses Police Department (UPD) will be onsite starting at 2:00 PM to conduct critical incident response training. This summer exercise allows local law enforcement personnel to utilize the vacant school facility to practice safety procedures and maintain high readiness levels.
District officials request that all community members, recreational park users, and residents stay completely clear of the school building, playgrounds, and fields during this afternoon's training. There is no active emergency or threat; the increased police presence is strictly for training purposes.
The building will remain locked and inaccessible for the duration of the event. Normal summer access to the campus grounds will resume tomorrow morning.

Thanks to the Ulysses Local Health Equity Action Team (LHEAT), Ulysses High School now features a Dignity and Lactation Room. The former "C" Team locker room has been converted into a quiet, private space. This new room supports the diverse needs of our community, families, staff, and students. This room includes an adult changing table, a rocking chair, and a mini fridge.
Grant County LHEAT Lead, Nancy Borthwick, says that this is the FIRST dignity room in the State of Kansas. LHEAT will also be doing a dedication ceremony at a later date to dedicate it in memory of Ron Smith.
Thank you LHEAT for helping provide a space for Tigers to care for themselves and their loved ones with privacy and respect!
