High Schools in Union

Summary:

The Union County High School is the sole high school located in the Union district of Florida. Serving grades 9-12, the school has maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three years, placing it in the top 36% of high schools statewide.

Union County High School stands out for its strong academic performance, with students exceeding the state average in several key subject areas like Biology 1 (78% proficient), US History (81% proficient), and 10th grade ELA (63% proficient). However, the school lags behind the state average in 9th grade ELA (46% proficient), indicating a potential area for improvement. The school's 89.7% 4-year graduation rate is also higher than the state average, suggesting a commitment to student success.

While the school faces some challenges, such as a higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rate of 31.4% and a relatively high percentage of students (42.76%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, it also benefits from higher spending per student ($14,517) and a lower student-teacher ratio (14.5) compared to state averages. These factors may contribute to the school's overall strong performance and the district's 4-star ranking, placing it in the top 15% of districts in Florida.
