What impressed you positively?

The students were all very happy with their education and it shows with their high board scores. The school has been around for a while so it has that traditional feel to it while at the same time incorperating modern technology.

What impressed you negatively?

The school is kind of crammed onto a small area and some buildings look a bit dated but nothing to bad. Had to watch a tacky video about the school. Theres no attached hospital so you don't get the same environment as other schools. Which means no resteraunts or shops around the school. Library was also a tad on the small side. The KC area is not for everyone. The highway system is horrific.

What are your general comments?

All in all I really liked UHS and would be more than happy to attend the school. The students are very proud of the school and with good reason.
