University School of Milwaukee Reviews
His teachers happily fostered his interests and applied their years of experience and knowledge of best-practices to his education. Not only are USM's teachers exceptional, the school's campus and facilities are unmatched, as well as its commitment to safety.
I love how the school encourages meaningful collaborations between students of all ages, how it teaches and upholds the standards of its Common Trust, and how it supports and engages with parents. We were thrilled with the education our son received and look forward to continuing our USM journey!
