(UM®) combines the best attributes of traditional schooling with the best attributes of homeschooling and integrates them into one model. The result is a quality education that gives parents more time for imparting their own faith and values to their children. In partnership with one another, parents and the school work together toward a mutual goal: to produce wholesome, competent, and virtuous followers of Christ who will change the world in their generation.

 

The UM® is a five-day academic program with students spending three days in the central classroom and two days in their “satellite classroom” at home. Both classrooms are under the supervision of the professional educator. The key to success of the concept is the integration of a biblically based, parent-guided, Christian faith and a sound, teacher-directed, academic environment. Parents partner with professional educators in this educational process. Under the supervision of the qualified educator, parents are required to provide teaching (lower grades) and oversight (upper grades) responsibilities of their child’s coursework in the satellite classroom. Families who choose the University-Model® program must have a parent or guardian in the home on satellite days to provide a Christ-centered education.
