I remember hearing author Rob Evans speak at a conference where he acted out an imaginary, but credible exchange between an upset parent and a sarcastic school administrator. The parent, in a moment of frustration regarding their child’s academic performance, blamed the school. He said, “I am not paying tuition at this school for my son to get a C in algebra.” Rob reviewed a stack of papers, raised his eyes over his glasses and responded: “My files show you are paying at the C+ rate; if you are interested in an A, you must register for our deluxe package.”

The Lady Bruins made an appearance at the TSSAA Division II-A State Championship for the sixth consecutive year after a hard-fought 3-2 victory over Silverdale Academy on Saturday, October 19, 2024. This win propelled the Lady Bruins into the final four of the state tournament, continuing their remarkable streak of success.

On November 7, 2024, USJ’s sophomore Addy Kirkland was sent off in style, with a special walk through both the Upper and Lower Schools to celebrate her incredible season and to cheer her on as she headed to the TSSAA State Cross Country Tournament. Students, faculty, and staff gathered to show their support for Addy, who had worked tirelessly all season to earn her spot at the state championship.
