My experience at my school as a senior in my school is overall great. I haven't had a bad experience with any teacher or staff. My teachers have always helped me with any challenge I faced. Only problems i have faced in the past was when COVID was rampant and it affected the way we learned all throughout freshman year therefore affecting my GPA. There isn't anything I would change about the school. My dream as I progressed high school was if the school gained more funding and provide a more variety of classes for future trade school students.

I loved the dance program, but besides that there are barely any teachers left so we're left with substitutes. Our boys sports suck, also the dress code is ridiculous. My school puts more effort into dress code then they do for the students. Since most of our teachers are gone we're left with substitutes who know nothing about the subject, so now we're left to learn on our own and we're failing because we don't have the proper resources.

Union High School is placed in the country, so if you want that country vibe this is the place. They have great teachers and student involvement. Sports are very competitive. It doesn't have much compared to others but I had a great experience.

I graduated from Union High School in 2013. Currently a Biology major at UNCW. If I could go back in time I would have chosen to graduate from virtually any other High School. I honestly do not want my name affiliated with this place! I have friends and family still in this school and it has only go...

It's an amazing school! Sadly it gets look down on simply because we aren't a city school but it's truely a great school. Every teacher there cares so much about their students and they show it. The students there are great. They are outgoing and so humble. I would recommend it to anyone !!!
