Summary

Union Hill Elementary is a public elementary school in High Point, North Carolina, serving 499 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Guilford County Schools district, which is ranked 142 out of 242 districts in the state.

Union Hill Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of North Carolina elementary schools, with a 1- or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance. The school's proficiency rates in mathematics, reading, and science are significantly lower than the district and state averages. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 32.9% of 3rd-grade students were proficient in reading, compared to 45% for the district and 46.7% for the state. The school's performance is particularly weak in reading, with proficiency rates ranging from 30.6% to 39.7% across grades 3-5 in recent years.

Interestingly, the nearby Johnson Street Global Studies, Kirkman Park Elementary, and Montlieu Academy of Technology magnet schools generally outperform Union Hill Elementary in academic proficiency, despite serving similar student populations. These magnet schools also tend to have lower student-teacher ratios and higher per-student spending, which may contribute to their better academic outcomes.
