Union Park Elementary is a diverse school. My children have excelled while attending Union Park. They have been involved in chorus and the instrumental group. This year Union Park Elementary made the grade of A. This speaks volumes for the efforts of the administrators and the teachers. I am a proud parent of two Union Park students.

Horrible school!!!!!!!! everything is about scores, the students here are just a number not an individual.

The school continues to thrive and parent involvement has increased in recent years. The staff and faculty at UPE truly care for our children and it's evident from the moment you step foot on campus with your child and see how many greet you and your child by name and with great enthusiasm! It's Special Needs Staff and Support Staff is truly amazing and I am grateful for their services and support for my son through his entire school career.

not thrilled with this school

We had a child that attended this school from 1st grade to 5th. We have been happy with the school and would not wish that he had attended any other. We have a child that attends kindergarden and hopefully one more that will attend. Kudos to the teachers.

I have two children that attend Union Park Elementary School. My youngest child is in 3rd grade this year while my oldest child is ending his stay at Union Park in 5th grade. Three years ago, the discipline problem at Union Park Elementary was to the point of 'inmates running the asylum.' The discipline administered at Union Park today is fair and consistent. The faculty and staff are committed to academic excellence for the children...not teaching to the test! Keep up the good work Mr. King and faculty! Get that 3rd A!

This school has disciplined children to the point of bringing even the toughest of 5th graders to tears. Sure, it is an 'A' school, one that teaches to the test rather than the academic needs of the children attending it. Read the ratings of similar 'A' schools and see for yourself if the majority of the entries herein are likely inputs of teachers or parents. This school needs to be seen up close for a true analysis.

Union Park has become an atmosphere of learning for all of the children here. The Accelerated Reader Program, CCC, and character building are only a few of the motivational methods used to make it an academic success. The key is the teachers, administration, and PTA working together to provide a positive, disciplined, structured environment for the children. My husband and I are happy to have our daughter here and are even more thrilled to have our little one starting kindergarten this year. Union Park is the only school We want our children to attend!
