UPNS Stories

Personal reflections, memories, and messages from parents, faculty, staff, alumni, and community members on why preserving UPNS matters.

UPNS has been the most wonderful experience for our family. Emma has blossomed into a confident, curious little girl. The teachers truly know each child as an individual, and the co-op community has become like a second family.

Being a co-op parent was something we were unsure about at first, but it turned out to be the best part. We get to see Noah's world firsthand, and the community of families we've met is incredible.

The Kitten Room was perfect for Arya's smooth transition into school. The teachers were so patient and nurturing. UPNS's cooperative model means I always know exactly what's happening in the classroom.
