Overall, I'm having a good experience with UMS. It has a good learning environment where teachers actually care about their students. People are friendly and UMS has a welcoming and warm environment. Although there's always room for change, I can't think of anything that needs to change at this time.

My daughter has attended UMS since K-4. She is now in 3rd grade. I wish that I had the opportunity to attend such an excellent school. She loves going to class and the curriculum is impressive. It really does feel like a family. Highly recommended.
