Union Day School

Union Day School is a tuition-free public charter school serving students in grades K-12 across Union County, Mecklenburg County, and the Charlotte area. The school is specifically designed to support a diverse range of learners, including students with language-based learning disabilities and twice-exceptional (2e) students. By focusing on academic excellence and personal growth, the school provides a specialized environment where students with unique learning profiles can thrive.

The school utilizes an evidence-based curriculum that emphasizes authentic learning experiences, student voice, and in-depth exploration. To ensure each student receives the necessary accommodations, Union Day School maintains a low student-teacher ratio, allowing for personalized attention and the implementation of individualized education programs (IEPs). The curriculum is complemented by the International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme starting in grade 6, which connects academic studies to real-world applications.

Beyond academics, the school fosters holistic development through its Athletics Department, which promotes teamwork and responsible behavior. The school environment is characterized by a close-knit, inclusive community where every child is known and respected. Families seeking specialized support, including developmental and therapeutic-focused learning, will find a nurturing atmosphere dedicated to both academic and social-emotional success.
