this school- where do we even start. the academics are great, will prepare you for high school, college, and ahead. one of the WORST things about this school is that there are only 2 bathrooms each for each gender. i am going to speak about the girls restrooms. both restrooms are disgusting and in horrible shape. each restroom has 3 stalls. the bathroom by the gym is especially filthy and is locked up for more than half of the school day. so, that's basically three stalls. teachers wonder why we take so long to use the restroom and punish us if we take more than 5 minutes... i personally just hold it in the whole day, i don't have a choice. most teachers are very strict and often like to choose favorites (classes and students) i can't even start.. as for sports, don't expect anything out of this school. we only have an archery team. for everything else, union students have to go to bms. there is a crowding situation. every time staff "fixes" it, it's worse. THERE IS A WASP INFESTATION!!!

Some teachers are nice while others literally don't care about you. They are really strict and punish students for stupid reasons, like forgetting to sign a progress report, or not wearing a belt. I swear, some of these teachers are just their to give you detentions.

This school has helped me, but the teachers teach very fast and won't stay on one subject. They'd give us a week to learn two things. Some people are slow learners. I will leave this school and go to a different state this summer. Hopefully this new school I am going to will be better at cooperating...

Better of the rest of schools in Bartow. It lacks the ability to grow with technology. I have 3 daughters 17, 15, abd 11, both my 17 and 15yo did the same curriculum all 3 years they attended Union. I ams sure my 5th grader will also. It has good teacher, but the curriculum needs to get the kids mor...
