Truly caring administration, teachers, and support staff. Great extra-curricular records. Band, sports, ffa, etc. well run and great records support this effort.

Posted March 27, 2008

I am a parent of three students in the Ubly district, my husband and I are also Ubly alumni. We have a child with behavioral and medical issues, and the school has been nothing but supportive. The administrators and teachers were always kind and helpful and to this day go out of their way to say hello to myself, or anyone else in our family and call us by name. The sports program here is very much political; as it always has been, you very much have to already have a name built for your family before being given a fair chance to show your ability in a sport. I feel that my children really do get a good education overall in this school, my husband and I went on to be very successful adults after our education here and I feel our chldren will as well.

About the tests


In 2012-2013 Michigan used the Michigan Educational Assessment Program (MEAP) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in math, reading and writing; in grades 5 and 8 in science; and in grades 6 and 9 in social studies. The MEAP is a standards-based test, which measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Michigan. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.

Beginning in the 2011-2012 school year, the Michigan State Board of Education implemented new definitions of what it means to be proficient on the MEAP test. The new standards for proficiency are higher than in previous years and the percent of students earning a proficient score is expected to be lower as a result of this change.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Michigan used the Michigan Merit Examination (MME) to assess students in grade 11 in reading, writing, math, science and social studies. The MME is a standards-based test, which measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Michigan. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.

Beginning in the 2011-2012 school year, the Michigan State Board of Education implemented new definitions of what it means to be proficient on the MME test. The new standards for proficiency are higher than in previous years and the percent of students earning a proficient score is expected to be lower as a result of this change.
