Urbandale High School (UHS) is a public high school in Urbandale, Iowa. It is the only high school in the Urbandale Community School District.

History

Until 1937, students wishing to pursue a high school education traveled to other cities, as Urbandale did not have high school facilities. The first year of high school education in Urbandale was the 1936–1937 school year.[4] A gymnasium with a stage was completed in 1940 with Works Progress Administration funding.[4] A new building was finished in 1963, with additions in 1978 and 1981. Another new building opened in 2007.[4]

Athletics

The J-Hawks are members of the Central Iowa Metro League, and participate in the following sports:[5]

Performing arts

UHS has multiple bands, many choirs along with Urbandale’s mixed choir, Urbandale Singers, a theater program, two competitive show choirs, the mixed-gender "Studio" and "Vitality".[14] The program has been hosting an annual competition since 1983.[15]
