NBRS Badge for Union Elementary School
Union Elementary School - Vale, NC
UES Book Character Day
Union Elementary is a school that welcomes all students, families, and the community. Being a school that emphasizes a student's overall growth has made Union the successful school it is today. As most schools have faced challenges in the past year, Union took the initiative to make learning during COVID-19 the best it could be by having students in the classroom safely and utilizing digital tools to ensure standards are being taught to the Union Owls each day - even at home. Union Elementary serves students pre-K through fifth grade. Students are actively engaged in art, music, physical education, STEAM, and social and emotional learning on a weekly basis in addition to their academic instruction. Ensuring that students receive enrichment classes helps students to be well prepared for life in the 21st century. As a 1:1 school, Union's teachers are able to personalize academics for all students through digital and inquiry-based learning. Union Elementary is a school that makes sure their students' well-being is taken care of before instruction takes place, which is why students are extremely successful when they leave Union Elementary.
