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.

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.

Great school. Would make the classes a little harder if I could. Most teachers care a lot about all of their students and try and help them succeed.

Unity High School is a great school for its academic programs. The agricultural and trade development courses as well as partnerships with Parkland make it a great option for high school students. The community is safe and well involved too. We do a lot for fundraising and spirit weeks are always a blast. There are some issues present with some of the instructors and within the student body, but the benefits of the school far exceed the drawbacks.
