GreatSchools Rating
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.

Listen, I am telling you this right now, DO NOT GO TO UNITY CHARTER SCHOOL, I am writing this from Central Middle School, And if you take music in your current school, there is not much to do in music here, and most of the kids here are kids that did not have friends in their previous school. Kids also rarely have electives, and most of the electives are extremely bad and teacher oftentimes does not give engaging lessons, kids also have to do a PLP project which keeps kid overworked and super unengaged, Please do not go to Unity Charter School, It ruined a year of my life and I don't want the same thing to happen to you, only go to nity if you are in elementary school but leave the school by the time you enter 4-6th grade. That is all I have to say

My daughter goes to Unity Charter School ever since she was in second grade. This year she is in 8th! She has learned so much, and Unity is probably the best decision of our lives for her.

My son has just thrived in the school. He was always a high performing student and this school has pushed him even higher. It's sad to see some of the reviews here that just don't speak to the incredible activities and learning that happens here. I'm excited that he'll in in high school algebra, geometry and algebra II, before he even finishes 8th grade. Thank you for the confidence you've instilled in him.

We have been in Unity for a few years and I can honestly say I was miserable prior to Unity, getting calls constantly about issues my child was having, and since joining Unity, my child is doing much better. I am truly shocked by many of the reviews I’ve read on here, although I know many of them we...

It's so unfortunate to see a school fall from grace. The parents who started this school would be appalled. The pillars for which this school stood for - teaching sustainability, small class sizes, hands on learning and the practice of positive discipline - are no longer a priority. These principles...

As a parent at Unity Charter School, I feel compelled to share our family's extraordinary experience with this remarkable institution.

We are new to Unity and this school has been everything we hoped for and more. We spent two years on the waiting list and always heard wonderful things from current families. We are so happy to now be one of those families. My children love going to school. There isn’t any reluctance from them anymo...
