Summary

Union Educational Complex is an alternative public school located in Mount Storm, West Virginia, serving grades PK-12 with a total enrollment of 193 students. The school is part of the Grant County Schools district, which is ranked 32 out of 55 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Union Educational Complex has consistently high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 92.5% to 100% over the past few years, significantly outperforming the state average of around 90%. However, the school's academic performance is quite variable, with some grades and subject areas performing well above the state and district averages, while others lag significantly behind, particularly in mathematics and science. This may indicate a need for more targeted interventions and support to ensure more consistent academic achievement across all grade levels and subject areas. As an alternative school, Union Educational Complex may be serving a population of students with unique needs and challenges, which could contribute to the observed variability in academic performance.

Interestingly, the only nearby alternative school, Mineral County Alternative Program, is much smaller, with only 8 students, and has an even lower student-teacher ratio of 2:1. This suggests that Union Educational Complex may be serving a larger and more diverse population of alternative students. Despite the academic performance challenges, the consistently high graduation rates at Union Educational Complex suggest that the school is effectively supporting students in completing their high school education, which is a critical outcome for an alternative school.
