I would give this school no stars if that was an option. As both a parent and former teacher at Buckeye Union High School, I wouldn't recommend this school to anyone. The teachers, for the most part do attempt to do their best, but have no backing from administration. Speaking of which, the principal

If you want good teachers, staff, administration, as well as a good education for your children, send them to Youngkers High School instead of Buckeye Union High School. Read less

I currently attend Buckeye. I think it is an excellent school. Mostly the reason people do not think that it is a good school stems from the students themselves, not the teachers.

We moved from Glendale to Buckeye like a lot people in the housing boom. The balance between what Buckeye was (pre-boom) and now is vast. It almost feels like we moved into some sort of inner city nightmare as far as the high school system is concerned. There is nothing but total apathy. I am disgusted
