UMEI Christian High School
Offering More Than a High School Diploma
This local high school is quietly making a difference in the lives of area teenagers by offering them more than an Ontario Secondary School Diploma.
The school, UMEI Christian High School, has inspired its students for 75 years to serve communities by becoming teachers, manufacturers, doctors, technologists, farmers, and municipal leaders as well as involved church members and advocates.
The award winning school is not a member of the Greater Windsor Essex Public or Catholic School Boards, but is rather a private school guided by a volunteer, community board and funded by area churches, donors, and corporate sponsors, together with modest student tuitions.
UMEI Christian High School has been visionary in its offering of unique robotics and other technology courses which bring advantages to further studies and workplaces of UMEI graduates.
With a smaller teacher-pupil ratio, the school is able to provide individualized approaches to studies and courses. Students receive supports and mentoring from a certified and experienced teaching staff committed to their students’ success and achievement.
Consequently, the school has a higher than provincial average of Ontario Scholars, with many of its graduates receiving entrance scholarships and awards.

Students are equipped with life skills and learning experiences so that career and work choices after high school are strengthened and enriched.
In order to support a broad learning environment for its students, the school also offers music, drama and competitive sports programs which has enabled them to be a sought after school and educational centre.
During this time of pandemic, the school has successfully remained open and COVID free for daily instruction and classes, with comprehensive online programs for the lockdown periods. This dedication to ongoing secondary education has brought the school praises and support from students, parents and the Ministry of Education.
UMEI Christian High School offers so much more than a high school diploma, making a difference in the lives of students and our community!
