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.

All of my experiences at Union County High School have been positive even when Covid-19 was going on the school was still very involved and made sure everyone got the help they needed. Union County High School has given me the support and education I need for college.

We have shortage of teachers and there is only a few teachers there that want to teach. Most of our food is old and cold. The facility is too small for such a large student body
