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.

Union City High School is focused on excellent academics, but at the same time, they have excellent sport programs. Union City is ranked in the nation for ACT scores. Union City has many state championships from their athletics. Teachers are nice and willing to help in any way.

It is a plantation. It's only good for you if you WHITE & rich. Or a gifted athlete. But don't get in any legal trouble. You will be treated like a cheap harlot.
