  • We love this school! Our children began at 2.5 years and the devotion the staff/teachers have for these children is above & beyond what I expected. We love the open door policy to speak with any teacher/staff, as well as the ability to walk-in to drop off & pick-up our children! The parent involvment is awesome and we are proud to be a part of it all! We love the abeka platform and the schools accrediations are a hug plus too. As stated in another review, DCF certified and we just had ACSI in this spring renewing our approval for accreditation! Highly recommend FUMCS.

  • This is a great school! It's safe (completely gated) & beautiful campus is a wonderful setting. The teachers are fantastic. This school is not only DCF certified but also accredited by ACSI. They service from 2 1/2 years to 6th grade.
