Great school!!! Principal leadership is a 4, they keep things in order, for teacher quality it is a 4, they're good teachers at our school but some people just don't care... for extracurricular activities I must give this school a 5 star rating, for parent involvement I would have to give a 3, it just seems to me that parents are not as involved as they could be, and for safety and discipline I would have to give a 4.

Union Public Schools has to be one of the best districts in Oklahoma! They excel in academics and athletics. They have tons to offer for kids whether your child is special needs or eligible for advanced placement they have a program to fit every students needs!

I believe Union is an excellent school district. They excel in extra curriculur opportunities in the fine arts and athletics. Academic opportunities abound and I'm grateful that students who wish to rise the challenge of advanced course work are allowed to do just that. Though my husband and I are both graduates of a neighboring rival district, we chose Union over it because we felt the diversity and the academic strength was superior at Union. There are also less distinct social lines drawn between the students of affluence and those who come from economically challenged families. I do believe that more needs to be done in the area of security and safety. The Intermediate High is known as the school in the district to the have the most discipline problems and recent issues have demonstrated this. Despite that, my daughter has always felt safe and secure while at school.

About the tests


In 2008-2009 Oklahoma used the Oklahoma Core Curriculum Tests End-of-Instruction (OCCT EOI) exams to test students in high school in several subjects. The results for reading and math are displayed on GreatSchools profiles. The OCCT EOI is a high school graduation requirement. The OCCT EOI exams are standards-based tests, which means they measure specific skills defined for each subject by the state of Oklahoma. The goal is for all students to score at or above the satisfactory level on the test.
