Summary

Union Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades 2-6 in the Northmont City School District in Union, Ohio. The school has 551 students and is rated 3 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. Over the past 10 years, the school's statewide ranking has fluctuated between 382 and 787 out of over 1,600 Ohio elementary schools.

Union Elementary School generally performs above the state average on Ohio state tests across grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, the school had 75.2% of 5th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 67.7%. However, the school's performance lags behind the Northmont City district average and some nearby schools, such as Northmoor Elementary, in several subject areas and grade levels. Additionally, Union Elementary School has seen a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 16.5% in 2023-2024 to 21.7% in 2024-2025, which is higher than the state average and some nearby schools.

While Union Elementary School demonstrates some strengths, particularly in the performance of certain student subgroups, it also faces challenges in maintaining consistent academic performance and addressing chronic absenteeism. Addressing these areas could help the school better serve its diverse student population and improve overall educational outcomes.
