The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

There is an overall good atmosphere among the students, most people are too tired to start drama. But I never really felt safe, there is multiple points of entry that anyone could access at any given moment. And there's a 1/3 chance that your teacher cares enough to actually teach you but I feel that's standard. But my readiness for the future (college and a career) it's excellent and you can earn certificates and take college classes early.

Union Pines High School provides a well rounded education to most students with a wide variety of teachers and subjects. However the school is grossly overpopulated and due to the area often struggles providing opportunities to certain subjects of interest.

I have one soon to be two sons who attend school at Union Pines. There is no other high school in Moore Co that I’d rather have my children attend. Great school all around!

I have 2 children at Union Pines and I love it! We specifically chose to live in our home because of the schools and I’m very happy with that decision! I’m sad to see the area grow so fast and I am hoping it doesn’t change the quality of the schools.
