Niche grades and rankings are calculated using dozens of public data sets and millions of reviews.

Every month, millions of students and families use the Niche grades and report cards to find the right school or neighborhood.
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.

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.
A 3.5 rating for this school is not inspirational. Concerned about the new headmaster of the school and the direction of both the board and headmaster. Do not believe the best interest of the students is the top priority.
I recently graduated from this school, and one of the biggest issue is the head of school. She’s consistently absent and overly meddles in everyone’s affairs. She disrespects fired staff members, including a teacher who bravely defended his class. Overall, she’s a negative influence on the school. S...
