Union Middle School
Welcome to Union Middle School! We are located in Dysart, Iowa, and serve 6th, 7th, & 8th grade students from the communities of Dysart and La Porte City.
UMS offers a strong curriculum with many different exploratory classes to spark the interests of various students. We are 1:1 with Chromebooks for all students and staff, and we encourage the use of technology in the classrooms.
UMS is a PBIS (Positive Behavior Intervention & Supports) School, and we have been recognized by the State of Iowa for our work and progress with PBIS. Our four areas focused on our Knights’ Code are respect, responsibility, pride, and self-discipline.
Our co-curricular and extracurricular activities include chorus, band, dance team, cheerleading, Silver Cord (community service volunteer program), Talented and Gifted, robotics, Mathcounts, football, volleyball, cross country, wrestling, basketball, track, tennis, softball, & baseball.
Two goals that we strive for each year with our students are to:
- Be the best middle school in the state (attendance, behavior, testing, etc.)
- Always act like a Knight!
We are Union Proud! Go Knights!
