Union Academy is a magnate school in Bartow, Florida. It dates to 1897 when it opened as an elementary school for African Americans.[1] It was eventually expanded to a high school. The high school was merged into Summerlin Academy during the desegregation era and the Union Academy became a Moddle School. Union Academy has a dress code and follows the International Baccelaureate (I.B.) program. HistoryUnion Academy was founded for the education of African Americans and named for the Union Academy, the fourth school founded in Florida for African Americans by the Freedmens Bureau in Gainesville. A.N. Ritchie was the school's first principal.[1] The school was underfunded and only went to the 8th grade.[2] James E. Stephens became a teacher at the school in 1937 and became principal the following year, a position he kept for more than three decades.[1] A secondary education program added in 1923 to make it a high school.[5] As a result of desegregation, Union Academy merged with Summerlin Academy in 1955 and its students joined the white students on the Summerlin campus at what became known as Bartow High School. [5] The Union Academy campus became a middle school.[3] References1. ^1 2 {{Cite web|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=A_bZhe4no8UC&pg=PA226&dq=union+academy+bartow&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj41qvKuejfAhWEdd8KHdU_DewQ6AEIKjAB#v=onepage&q=union+academy+bartow&f=false|title=African American Sites in Florida|date=Jan 12, 2007|publisher=Pineapple Press Inc|via=Google Books}} {{coord missing|Florida}}{{Florida-school-stub}}2. ^{{Cite book |url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=vNHigIfcwaMC&pg=PA64&dq=union+academy+bartow&hl=en&sa=X&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=union%2520academy%2520bartow&f=false |title=Arc of Justice: A Saga of Race, Civil Rights, and Murder in the Jazz Age |last=Boyle |first=Kevin |date=2007-04-01 |publisher=Henry Holt and Company |isbn=9781429900164 |language=en}} 3. ^1 2 {{Cite web|url=http://ua.polk-fl.net/history-of-union-academy/|title=History of Union Academy|date=Feb 8, 2014|website=Union Academy}} 1 : Schools in Florida |
