ESUMS PTO Policy on Student Travel Grants
ESUMS students frequently excel in academic competitions and earn the opportunity to travel to national-level competitions. We have sent students in the past to national history, poetry, digital media, mathematics, science, and engineering competitions, and they frequently win awards even at the national level.
It is the PTO's policy to provide $150 travel reimbursement for national competitions per student per year while funds last.
ESUMS School Play Review from Malay USA
Truly amazing performances by members of ESUMS Drama Club. It was held at the University of New Haven Bucknall Theatre on June 2nd and June 3rd.
A few words or a simple sentence will not be sufficient to describe the incredibly mesmering performance by these young students. You really need to be there!
And you were there, you would've been so captivated by the show, that you didn't even realized that it was two hour long by the time it ended. It was so funny you would've laughed so hard, we all did! We are still talking about it even two days after the show.

ESUMS prepares its students for STEM programs at the collegiate level through a “hands-on and minds-on” philosophy. We heard from a variety of educators and students that what primarily distinguishes this school is its level of rigor, and a core belief that all students can achieve at high levels.
