Overall, my experience at Union City High School has been great. The staff makes you feel like you have a second family. The teachers are great and help you better understand the work assigned. There's almost nothing to complain about. The people are those you can trust sometimes, and anyone who graduates usually never complains.

I would like to see a change in the determination to enforce rules. I feel like rules are enforced for a week but then by the following week they are swept under the rug and forgotten.

My experience during Union City high school was chill. Don't get in trouble and you'll be fine. I made lots of friends and had many good conversations with them. The teachers that I had made the school experience good. The teacher really help you for college.

We should be at least given some sort of orientation/tour to know the school so is less streesi...

It was pretty frustrating dealing with faculty members who required respect but did not show any back. What really hurt the experience for me was not being able to talk to my counselour as she was no help at all, ive asked others and the agree with me.
