This school is nothing like the other charter schools affiliated with University of Chicago. Their curriculum isn't the best for students who may need more assistance and academic motivation. It's more like academic boot camp. The school will make consistent phone calls to the guardian over very petty matters. The fees are ridiculous compared to what they supposedly cover (which is very little). There aren't any normal high school experiences available like basketball games, pep rallies, or homecoming. ANYTHING extra you are charged (yes it's a charter school but at UCW it's not worth it) I have heard from others that they're also displeased with the school. All along I thought it was just me. UCW is designed for A and B students, who more than likely aren't interested in ANY standard extra curricular activities and who are self taught and motivated. Unfortunately, that isn't your average high school student.
