High Schools in Union City Area School District

Summary:

The Union City Area School District in Pennsylvania has only one high school, Union City High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has consistently performed below the state average on the Keystone Exams, with proficiency rates several percentage points lower than the Pennsylvania averages in all three tested subjects: Algebra I, Biology, and Literature.

Union City High School has a 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger and a ranking of 431 out of 681 Pennsylvania high schools for the 2024-2025 school year. The school's graduation rate is 87.9%, and its dropout rate is 1.4%. Despite the district's higher-than-average per-student spending and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.4 to 1, the school's academic performance remains below state standards, suggesting a need to re-evaluate the allocation and utilization of resources to better support student learning.

The data also reveals that Union City High School has a very high percentage of students (97.02%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. This socioeconomic factor may contribute to the school's lower academic performance, and targeted interventions may be necessary to address the challenges faced by the student body.
