The University of Hartford Magnet School’s (UHMS) mission is to ensure that all students meet high standards and develop their full potential in traditional and expanded academic areas, as defined by Dr. Howard Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences. UHMS is founded on the belief that each of these eight distinct types of intelligences including Linguistic, Logical-mathematical, Spatial, Musical, Bodily-kinesthetic, Interpersonal, Intrapersonal and Naturalistic has importance in a child’s life. 

UHMS will help all students develop their basic skills by presenting a strong Pre K - grade 5 curriculum that is aligned with the State of Connecticut Curriculum Framework and is advanced and enhanced by the skills and enthusiasm of a dedicated staff. This school is managed by CREC.
