The 1911 Hartford Union High School building is a local landmark. It served as the city's high school for decades before being repurposed as a middle school. The building's architecture reflects the early 20th-century educational ideals.
Many notable graduates have walked its halls, including NFL players John Shinners and Jeremy Unertl, Olympic wrestler Dennis Hall, and Halestorm guitarist Joe Hottinger.
