Information for Students and Parents

What students say about UWHS

"I believe that taking English 131 and 111 during high school was one of the best decisions I made in preparing for college. Not only was I ahead of my fellow freshmen in credits, but I feel that I really had an edge when it came to writing my first few college papers. I feel this program is a great way to make the transition into college, and college-level writing. I highly recommend the program to all students planning on attending a university after high school."
Lacey Leavitt, Lake Stevens High School

"Taking French as a UWHS course allowed me to learn college level material without leaving my high school. I was able to receive college credit at an affordable price."
Marie Jones, Richland High School

"It was a great introduction to writing college papers-a real eye-opener! It helped make my college transition easier."
Marie Kent, Lake Stevens High School

"Taking college level courses in high school is the best thing that a student can do to prepare themselves for college."
Jacob Nickerson, South Kitsap High School

"UWHS prepared me for college-level work and taught me important study habits and skills necessary to succeed in college."

"My Spanish 201 class was a great transitional step into the college environment: a rigorous course, yet it was taught by someone I already knew and was comfortable with."
Robert Jaworski, O'Dea High School

"The course is challenging but effective. You can tell that you are receiving a quality education."
Casey Hammond, Archbishop Thomas Murphy, Everett

"I don't know how freshmen at college survive without it. I learned to THINK on a higher level in high school."
Rachael Blanchard, Lake Stevens High School

"The course was challenging, but not overwhelming. It is a good way to receive credit without leaving your high school campus."
Ross Bryant, Gig Harbor High School
