The best part was definitely my art teacher it all really depended on if you had that one teacher you can rely on or know that class is gonna be your calm safe place between all the hard or bad teachers. So my art class and teacher was definitely my safe place and it made me look forward to going to school everyday.

At Union Academy, we believe in and value challenge, character, and community. The faculty and staff at UA truly care about the students and the UA family as a whole. The teachers challenge the students to achieve their goals. That's something that's important in a school, and it brings our k-12 school together as family.

I've been at Union Academy since a kindergartener so I've been able to create a sense of community growing up with the same people. Although we might not be the best at sports, people that show up to support show good school spirit and creating a good atmosphere for encouragement. The one thing I think Union Academy can improve on is being more inviting to new students.

This school has been really bad there are some teachers are good most, more like 98% of the employees say that this is a good school but as a student, they do not care I've seen a lot of reviews and most I agree with. I have been in an incident of racism and they discarded it like it never even happ...
