I am currently half way through my senior year of high school and it has been some of the best years of my life. Not only have I been blessed with great teachers and a great education, but I have also made friendships that I know will carry on with me after graduation. The quality that I love the most about my school is that it has a true sense of community. All of the teachers and staff want what is best for the students, and they want to see everyone succeed. Whether it may be in the classroom, or in a certain club or sports teams, you truly feel as if you have a safe place within the school to be yourself. There is a place for everyone here and that is what made want to go to school there my freshman year. Overall, I have had a great experience!
UC has been a wonderful experience for me, freshman year I always felt welcome, there was of course the initial nervousness but all of it went away pretty quickly. Sophomore, Junior, and my Senior year were also pretty great! There’s always something new and fun to do, as far as PAC, and a wide variety of clubs, as well as sports. Everyone is very friendly and helpful, especially our principle Sister Percylee.
What I like about Union Catholic is, is that they give opportunities whether you play sports or are an average student. For example I was invited to a HBCU college fair where I was fortunately accepted into four colleges on the spot! Students who play sports such as track and field, are given numerous opportunities. The training and dedication put into that sport is immaculate. Students have either been in or asked to run at the Olympics. This high school has a lot of work to do regarding better academics and pricing (tuition and food) but overall they are helpful when it comes to applying for colleges and getting better at sports and activities you love. (especially community service)
