Ulysses USD 214

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!

On July 13, 2026, the Board of Education approved policy update in the Parent & Student Handbook regarding student cell phone and personal device use during the school day. Student safety and student learning are the highest priorities of USD 214. In alignment with Kansas House Bill No. 2299, the district is committed to maintaining a focused, distraction-free learning environment while addressing concerns related to cyberbullying, student well-being, and academic engagement.

Please review the changes at https://ulyssesusdks.sites.thrillshare.com/page/cell-phone-social-media-legislation , or in the 2026-2027 Parent & Student Handbook.

Changes to Our Social Media Accounts Starting July 1, 2026, Kansas House Bill 2299 changes how schools use social media and cell phones. Under the new law, district employees cannot interact with students through social media.

Since we cannot always tell who owns a social media account, all official Ulysses School Buildings, club, and sports pages will no longer reply to direct messages or comments.

If you need assistance, we still want to hear from you! Please contact our schools or staff directly through the phone numbers and email addresses on our website.

As our 2025-2026 School Year closes, we met today and celebrated our staff that is retiring at our District Convocation. Misti Becker, Lorrie Munsell and Susan Zamarron are all onto new adventures! Misti was so excited to start her next adventure that she was unable to join us today. Misti's presence will be missed not only in the classroom, but also on the stage when the Musical students regroup in the fall. #OneRoar
