ORLANDO, Fla. - Floridant -- UCP Charter Schools (Unlocking Children's Potential) Charter Schools is proud to announce two of its schools have received the highest possible school rating from the Florida Department of Education.

UCP Pine Hills and UCP Osceola received the grade of "Commendable" – the highest rating a school can receive. The grades recognize outstanding learning gains at both schools in English Language Arts (ELA) and Math and is a testament to the hard work and commitment of students and staff.

These accomplishments are particularly significant for UCP Pine Hills and UCP Osceola, as they are two of UCP's highest need schools. With over 90% of students receiving free or reduced lunch and more than 50% of students having disabilities, these schools have demonstrated extraordinary commitment to academic excellence and inclusion.

"These exceptional results highlight the remarkable achievements of our scholars and the unwavering dedication of our educators," said Dr. Ilene Wilkins, CEO and President of UCP. "We are so very proud of all our schools and the work and commitment that our team has made to support these great results!"

"UCP Charter Schools remains dedicated to providing high-quality education and support to all students, ensuring that every child has the opportunity to reach their full potential," said Dr. Wilkins.
