GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

This is my child's third year at UCS, and I feel so comfortable with the staff for all their attention and care of the needs for the students. I love the style of teaching through music, arts and science the school offers a hand on approach and I'm so pleased with my student growth in these experiences.
