Union High School's academic performance has been mixed, with 11th-grade students scoring above the state average in English Language Arts (ELA) but below average in Mathematics and Science. The school's four-year graduation rate for the 2023-2024 school year was 81.8%, slightly below the state average. Additionally, the school has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 34.3%, which may be impacting student learning and achievement.
Demographically, Union High School serves a predominantly low-income student population, with 53.37% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
