Description

Emerson Middle School is a public middle school located in Union City, New Jersey, United States, operated as part of the Union City Board of Education. The school was originally one of two high schools in Union City, along with the now-Union Hill Middle School, that served the city's students. With the merger of both schools into the new Union City High School in 2008 and the opening of that school's new campus in 2009, both of the former high schools were converted to serve sixth, seventh, and eighth graders.As of the 2010-11 school year, the school had an enrollment of 843 students and 49.0 classroom teachers (on an FTE basis), for a student–teacher ratio of 17.20:1.HistoryEmerson High School was originally the sole high school to serve the town of West Hoboken, New Jersey. In 1925, the town merged with its neighbor to the north, Union Hill, New Jersey, which had been served by Union Hill High School, to form the city of Union City, New Jersey. As the city was now served by two high schools, students who lived north of the Route 495 overpass (which previously divided the two towns) would attend Union Hill, while those who lived south of it would attend Emerson, though that boundary was shifted in later years to keep the school enrollments roughly equal.
