The teachers at ucms will work with their students to get them ready for the nexr level of learning. Teachers call students' homes and send home reports every four weeks to let parents know about their child's over-all performance. I'm glad my son attends this school.

As a former student, I can say no with no doubts that with few exceptions I hated my time at Unicoi County Middle Schools. First, the building is despicable. It's of no concern to me if the building is old, but when the building is old, unsafe, and literally falling apart, it begins to inhibit learning. Second, the favouritsm game is played, as another reviewer mentioned. Athletes/favourites of the teachers and administration are frequently let off for punishable deeds. Third, there seemed to be a definite lack of encouraging to learn, with some exceptions (although I can honestly say some of my middle classes were harder than classes I have now at the high school, and these are 'challenge' classes). I feel that I was hurt in the math area because of this. Also, some of the classes are just plain boring for students. In closing, I do not recommend UCMS.

The people that are in charge of the school are not very well in-tune with the students' needs. They tend to play favoritism instead of taking care of each situation with the same degree of action. Trust me i attend this school.

My kids really love this school. They would rather be at school than at home. There grades are always A's or B's. The teachers have always seem to have and interest in helping my kids in anyway they can. My kids aren't afraid to go to a teacher and ask for help. They are really looking forward to Mr. English being there principal this year. They have noting but wonderful things to say about him.
