Good afternoon. I want the UJSHS community to be aware that there was a single vehicle accident that occurred this morning around 11:30, that involved an individual not associated with our school. The accident took place in an area of our campus that did not interrupt classes going on inside. Thank you to the Warren County Sherriff's Dept., Central Warren FPD and GHAS for their quick response to the accident, addressing the needs of the individual involved and clearing the scene.
