Embrace the possibilities 
Why Arts, Athletics and Service are Essential at ULS
At every grade level, from Lower to Upper School, University Lake School offers meaningful, multifaceted programs in the visual arts, music, theatre, athletics and service learning.
Led by enthusiastic, expert teachers and coaches, these programs intersect with and amplify our academic curriculum so students acquire sophisticated technical, teamwork and problem-solving skills that enhance their learning and encourage original thinking in all subjects. Equally important, students reflect on, celebrate with, and become active members of different communities. This intentional fostering of gratitude, empathy, personal integrity and pure joy is something that they share throughout their lives.
ULS students express their imaginations, follow intellectual curiosity, and explore new perspectives in fully equipped art studios and performance spaces. They build physical courage and lifelong healthy habits in our spacious gymnasiums and on our expansive athletic fields. They partner with local organizations to offer hope, effectively address problems, and build character through service.
Supporting and informing these hands-on experiences, along with the beauty and variety of our extraordinary natural surroundings, makes student life here exceptionally varied and invigorating.
We invite your family to explore our visual arts, music, theatre, athletics, and service learning programs at each division level — and start to imagine the possibilities!
