5 Reasons Why UCS Families Choose Us

Energy. Principals. Innovation. These are a few reasons Colorado families enroll in Union Colony Schools (UCS). For almost two decades, USC has been a beacon of academic excellence, diversity and student empowerment. Our teachers and staff go beyond traditional education to provide every child with an enriching and dynamic learning experience. Here's why our school stands out from the rest:

  1. Vibrant Learning Community

UCS focuses on creativity, collaboration and critical thinking. We know we're molding the leaders of tomorrow and take every step possible to teach our students confidence and resilience. From our "Being a Writer" and "Bridges in Mathematics" elementary programs to our prep school's "college path," we offer personalized learning experiences tailored to each student's needs.

UCS is more than a school---we're a community where faculty looks out for the well-being of every child---and each other.

2. Tuition-Free, Innovative Curriculum

Our curriculum goes beyond textbooks and lectures. We use hands-on, experiential learning techniques to engage all students; sparing curiosity and creativity. Whether through project-based learning, STEM initiatives, or arts integration, we prepare students for success in today's multi-faceted world. Also, we are a tuition-free public charter school in Evans (elementary) and Greeley (prep), Colorado.

3. Caring Faculty and Staff

UCS faculty and staff are mentors, advocates, and champions for every student. With small class sizes and a focus on individualized attention, we provide the support and guidance students need to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. We also embrace diversity and get all students up to speed as quickly as possible, no matter their background.

4. Engaging Extracurricular Activities

Learning doesn't stop when the school day ends at UCS.  We are the Timberwolves and we "howl" with excitement in every game, on every stage, and in every club! We offer girls' volleyball, boys' and girls' soccer, and boys' and girls' basketball! Beyond sports, we provide challenging music programs and celebrate with fun concerts. Our extracurricular activities let students explore their interests, develop new skills, and make lifelong friendships. Whether it's through sports teams, clubs, or community service projects, there's something for everyone at our schools!

5. Family Involvement

We believe education is a partnership between school and home, so we actively encourage family involvement in every aspect of our K-5 and 6-12 school communities. From parent-teacher conferences to volunteer opportunities, we value the input and support of our families and work together to ensure the success of every student.
