The best part about Union Parish High School is that there are some teachers there that will sacrifice there life for students there, some teachers are Great educators as well. The worst part is the atmosphere, sadly you will be surrounded by drugs & bad influence everywhere you go , it seems like the school have a rough time controlling that. For example sometimes the school seems to be more worried if a student wears a hoodie or earphones than a student carrying drugs , misbehaving or bullying another kid.
