UNION EDUCATIONAL COMPLEX

UNION EDUCATIONAL COMPLEX is a Title I public school that is part of the Grant County Schools school district, located in MOUNT STORM, WV with about 197 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 16 teachers, UNION EDUCATIONAL COMPLEX has a student/teacher ratio of about 12:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

UNION EDUCATIONAL COMPLEX, located at 51 Tiger Drive in Mount Storm, West Virginia, serves as a central hub for K-12 education in the rural Grant County community. As a combined school, it integrates elementary, middle, and high school students under one facility, which allows for a close-knit environment where students often remain with the same peer group and faculty throughout their academic journey. The school is known for its "Tiger" pride, which serves as a unifying theme for its athletic programs and extracurricular activities, fostering a strong sense of school spirit within the sparsely populated mountain region.

Academically and socially, UNION EDUCATIONAL COMPLEX functions as the heart of the Mount Storm area, providing essential services to families spread across the surrounding rural landscape. Because it is a smaller school system, it emphasizes individualized attention and community involvement, often acting as a gathering place for local events. The institution focuses on preparing students for life after graduation, whether that involves pursuing higher education or entering the local workforce, while maintaining the traditional values and tight community bonds characteristic of West Virginia’s mountainous school districts.
