Urbandale will be a school district that brings learning to life for everyone.
WELCOME TO URBANDALE HIGH SCHOOL!!!
ABOUT ME
This is my tenth year at UHS and my 32nd year as a teacher overall. I am the school-to-work coordinator and also serve as the service learning teacher. I also teach an advanced health class called Wellness for Life as well as a careers class called Succeeding in the World of Work.
SERVICE LEARNING
This class focuses on students volunteering in the community. We go out to various places throughout the week and volunteer our services to that place.
