Union Star school is fairly small. I graduated with 10 kids in my class. Because it is so small, you get more of a one on one with your teachers when you're in need of help. It's a very loving and safe school. The teachers are some of the most caring and sweet people I've met. They really care about the students and always do their best to help.
