Students need more than just academic instruction. They need comprehensive guidance. Our counselors teach the importance of social and emotional health, so students can become confident leaders. Developing strong social and emotional skills will help students navigate school and life after graduation.
Each student is assigned two counselors to guide them through their learning experience - one for college planning and another for social/emotional development.
Peer tutors, UP alumni, and student aides all come together to help our students before and after school, making learning a joint effort.
Our student mentorship program helps motivate students to make connections, participate in leadership roles, and create a positive school atmosphere.

New students - at both our middle school and high school - are encouraged to participate in the summer enrichment program. It creates a dynamic opportunity for incoming 5th and 9th graders to receive social and emotional support as we orient them to their new school and guide them through relationship-building skills.

The curriculum is challenging but manageable. It is a great way to push and expand the minds of young people.
