UCAP
An independent middle school where the possibilities are endless for our students. Each year, UCAP works with approximately 140 students in grades 7 and 8.
At UCAP, they get the personal attention they need to develop the skills, attitudes, habits, and behaviors that will enable them to stay in school and succeed. Since opening in 1989, UCAP has helped over 1200 at-risk students achieve their academic potential.

Week 3 of Beyond U summer camp was all about fun and fitness! Students engaged in physical activities like racing go carts and completing treetop obstacle courses. They also went to a WooSox Game, and reached for the sky at Urban Air.

Week two of Beyond U Summer Camp took students out on the water where they had the incredible opportunity to attend Save The Bay Camp. This program doesn’t only include a fun week of swimming, boat excursions and working with aquatic life, but also teaches students the importance of conservation and wildlife in Narragansett Bay.
Special thanks to Save The Bay - Narragansett Bay for making this week possible and giving our students an experience they’ll remember for a lifetime!

Hello Families, Friends, and Supporters of The UCAP School,
Our commitment to students remains as strong as ever. We are developing a clear and sustainable plan to continue serving young people who are not finding success in their current educational setting and those who have been retained in grade. We are also preparing communication materials that will outline our vision and explain how families, friends, and supporters can stay involved and help us build these new pathways forward.

Thank you for your continued support!

Last Thursday, we celebrated UCAP students at our annual Closing Ceremony event signaling the end of the 2026 school year. We are so proud of every student and what they accomplished this year! The future is bright for every UCAP student!
Special thanks to Paula DeBlois, Fund for UCAP Board Chair, who addressed our students and encouraged them to remember the lessons and come back to UCAP if they need help or advice. We honored Lori Autiello-Daignault, School Counselor at Nathanael Greene Middle School, with the Friend of UCAP Award for her involvement with UCAP and identifying students who would benefit from attending The UCAP School.
Have a happy summer!
