High achieving school which can lead to some competition between students/families. Hard to pin all of that on the school - as it often comes from home. There are some high quality teachers here who are some of the best I've come across. Some great community nights - Multicultural Night, Dance Fest, Basket Bingo, etc that really bring the teachers/students/families together. Great neighborhood school, overall.

Our experience with the Union middle school has been extremely positive. The principal's leadership stands out as one of the school's greatest strengths. They are highly visible, approachable, and genuinely invested in the success and well-being of every student. Their commitment to fostering a supportive, inclusive, and academically challenging environment is evident throughout the school community.The school offers a wide variety of clubs and extracurricular activities, allowing students to explore different interests, develop new skills, and build meaningful friendships. Whether students are interested in academics, arts, leadership, technology, or athletics, there are opportunities for everyone to get involved. The choir and band programs have been exceptional and have played a significant role in my daughter's growth and confidence. She was encouraged to develop her musical talents and was given numerous opportunities to perform at school and community events. These experiences not only helped her excel musically but also provided tremendous motivation, confidence, and a sense of accomplishment. The dedication of the music teachers and the variety of performance opportunities make these programs a valuable part of the school's overall educational experience.Parent engagement is another area where the school excels. Communication is consistent and transparent, and families are encouraged to participate in school events, volunteer opportunities, and decision-making processes. This strong partnership between the school and parents creates a collaborative environment that benefits students.Overall, Union middle school provides a well-rounded educational experience characterized by strong leadership, diverse opportunities, active family involvement, and a genuine commitment to helping every student reach their full potential.

This school is horrible. My son was in the hospital and missed pe for first semester and tried to make up for it for golf. It turned out that I was supposed to fill out a form to get him excused that was supposed to be filled out but was announced in first semester when he wasn’t there. Overall, this school is very discriminatory towards people that have had medical issues and please don’t send your kid there.
