About Us 

A USM Education is the Experience for a Lifetime

University School of Milwaukee is widely recognized as the finest preprimary through secondary school in the Milwaukee area, and one of the top college-preparatory schools in the United States.  USM is a friendly and inclusive community where students, families, teachers, staff, and alumni all find their places and thrive. 

At USM we believe it's important to teach students consistent ways of approaching the world—for learning and for life.  Our students develop enthusiasm for learning, social skills, self-confidence, and a sense of responsibility.  From age three to 18, our students are stimulated, encouraged, supported, and motivated.  In every grade and every class, our students look forward to each day to explore fresh challenges and opportunities.

USM also creates a positive impact on the lives of alumni.  Our graduates credit their education for giving them an invaluable foundation for future achievements.
