Values
- Open Doors
- Opening doors to opportunities that cultivate a love for learning and a passion for growth drives us every day. United exists to ensure that all students who cross our threshold have access to the teachers, resources, programming, and school community that will help them flourish. We believe schools that train and support outstanding teachers, select and implement high-quality liberal arts curricula, and actively teach students to develop their own agency create the conditions that unlock the potential and passion that each child possesses.
