Mission

 

The mission of Union County Early College is to identify at-risk, underrepresented 8th grade students who potentially will not have the opportunity to finish high school or attend college, enroll them in our rigorous and supportive high school environment, and graduate them in five years with a high school diploma and transferable college credits. 

 

The Vision of Union County Early College (UCEC) incorporates three core values, Rigor, Relevance, and Relationship, to provide an environment conducive to positive student-teacher relationships and increasing academic performance for admission to college courses during the first two years. UCEC prepares every student to be ready for college, careers, and life.
