Welcome to Urangan State High School
Our school is a friendly, happy, and busy place where our focus is on developing individual and collective excellence; for an inclusive, dynamic, and cohesive community.
We aim to develop a safe, supportive, and inclusive culture that fosters a sense of belonging and purpose for all; enabling us to celebrate our successes as members of a dynamic, cohesive community. In doing this, we help to discover the best within all students, through high quality educational and social experiences that expose them to new ideas, new ways, and new possibilities - ultimately supporting every student to have opportunities for "what comes next".
As Principal, my focus is on the support of our staff and community to deliver on this promise for students. I firmly believe that digital literacy sits alongside critical literacy and citizenship as the bedrocks of a successful 21st Century education. By ensuring that our staff have the right structures and spaces to deliver this education, and working alongside our Fraser Coast community as equal partners in developing well-rounded citizens, I know that each and every student is well supported to identify and pursue their opportunities for "what comes next" in their life beyond school.
Similarly, parents are always welcome in our school, as you play a very important role in our school community and our students benefit from you taking an active interest in their high school activities. I encourage you to reach out to me and my team if we can assist in any way, and to keep up with all our school events and see details of our student success by following us on Facebook (@UranganSHS), on Compass (https://uranganshs-qld.compass.education/), and here on our website (Calendar and News menu, above).
We look forward to - alongside you - working together, to learn.
Tony McCormack
