School Overview

Union Memorial Elementary sits in New Castle, a small post-industrial city in western Pennsylvania that has a tight-knit, working-class character and a strong sense of local pride. The school lands solidly in the middle of the pack statewide, with math scores being a particular bright spot, making it a reasonable choice for families looking for a stable, community-rooted school experience. Families who value a smaller-district feel — where teachers tend to know kids by name and the community rallies around its schools — will find Union Memorial a comfortable fit.
