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.

The school is kinda stupid when it comes to punishment. There are some low-key perverts who go here, and they get off scott free while another student says "my pp is bigger than yours" to another student and gets a 3 day out of school suspension. Other than that its a great school.

The worst school! They literally allow the kids to do whatever they want. They allow sever bullying, cyber bullying, with zero disciplinary action. When shown proof of bullying, the principal simply states, not my problem. Do not send your kids here!

We transferred our daughter here a year ago and she is excelling! We couldn't be happier. Such a great school for children with disabilities. The attentiveness she gets on a daily basis is amazing. So happy we are here in this district and so is our daughter!

Great school! My daughter loves it here. Academically she is excelling. She went to a large school for all her prior years but loves the closeness of Union township.
