This is my child's first year in Pre K 4 and I am very pleased with what he is learning. I especially like the teacher/student ratio. I have witnessed teacher and staff truly committed to helping the children grow in academics and in spirit.
UCS Academics are on the rise. ACT scores are way above the national average. My children have had tremendous success at UCS, spiritually, academically and athletically. The negative reviews of the school regarding the Christianity of those involved are horribly mistaken. It only takes a minute of being involved to see the love and compassion of this family. No school is perfect, and UCS is not for everyone. But, if you are looking for a good place to send your kids, where teachers go the extra mile, the staff bends over backwards to accomodate everyone, and children are happy, UCS is it.
I attended UCS for five years, and its lack of emphesis on education proved to be problematic when I entered public school. Although everyone else at the public school I attend was so much more advanced than I, I managed to overcome those problems. I can honestly say I wouldn't be as gifted as I am without having transferred. to public school. A lot of parents on here seem not only contemptious but also adament that this school distributes a quality education for each and every child, but there is no one better than the student who knows what really goes on. Take it from a former one: this school is hardly one to brag about.
My daughter is finishing fifth grade at UCS this year. We transferred her to UCS after k-4th in a Rankin Co public school. The difference is amazing. She was bored to tears in public school and complained all the time, but she is soaking up so much and loving school now. There are 14 in her class now instead of 24. They have a prayer time each morning and discuss each other's prayer requests. Fifth graders are taught respect for the American flag and are responsible for putting up and taking down the flag each day. The headmaster has a love for children and a genuine concern for their growth academically and spiritually. I can't say enough good about UCS.
