Principal's Message
Greetings from the Phoenix Family! Student success is the goal of every staff member at UMED. We believe that with our dedication to high-quality instruction, research-based best practices, and small learning environment, all scholars will learn to their fullest potential.
UMED is a trailblazing full-service medical magnet high school. Partnerships with organizations such as Los Angeles Trade Tech College, California State University-Dominguez Hills, Kaiser Permanente, and Charles R. Drew University enhances our college prep curriculum by providing scholars with real-world experience in the health profession.
Here at UMED, our scholars look beyond barriers and obstacles and rise like a phoenix from the ashes. We are responsible, have integrity, scholarly, and strive for excellence. Please explore our website and discover the amazing things we do on campus.
“Like a phoenix, we R.I.S.E.!”
Educationally Yours,
Dorothy Cotton-Kindred, Ed.D.
Proud Principal
