OUR ACADEMIC PROGRAM
At Public Prep, we are passionate about making education both challenging and joyful. We believe this fusion cultivates true engagement. We know that our scholars will be the leaders of tomorrow, and they deserve a rich and rigorous program that will set them up to lead their communities.
Our academic framework is marked by a demanding curriculum delivered through personalized, culturally rich instruction. We prioritize inclusivity and diversity, ensuring students encounter a wide spectrum of perspectives and voices across all subjects. This approach empowers our scholars to discover their own voices through meaningful dialogue, exploration, and real-world application of their knowledge.
Here's a glimpse into what our curriculum offers:
Our students enjoy a diverse daily schedule, including sessions in reading, writing, math, math, science, social studies, physical education, fine and performing arts, and a wealth of enrichment opportunities during and after school. To support the diverse needs of our individual learners, we also provide daily additional academic assistance for all who need it.
In our mathematics classrooms, our scholars make meaning of complex, real-world situations through inquiry, collaboration, and feedback. Every scholar leaves Public Prep with a rich, hands-on understanding of mathematical concepts and a strong set of problem-solving tools.
Public Prep is dedicated to nurturing and uplifting the next generation of leaders in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). Embracing the philosophy to "start early with the end in mind," we've established a scalable and impactful model of STEM education for young learners that lays a strong foundation so they are ready for the jobs of tomorrow.
The leaders of tomorrow must have a strong understanding of the past. That's why, starting in our youngest grades, scholars engage in literacy-based, rich history coursework with an emphasis on equity and social justice. In this course, scholars will read rich, non-fiction historical texts, supporting their critical thinking and writing.
At Public Prep, we develop the whole scholar-strengthening their mind, body, and imagination. Our challenging and balanced curriculum is delivered by experts certified in their fields. From Dance and Theater to Visual Arts and Physical Education, scholars have opportunities to expand their interests and discover their passions, both during and after school.
At Public Prep, we believe that all scholars deserve to succeed. We are committed to offering the individual interventions that each scholar needs to be successful, both through our co-teaching classroom model, small group instruction, counseling, and multiple therapies that scholars deserve.
Our arts and physical education programs are designed to develop our scholars' full creative and physical abilities and talents. Each of our arts and physical education classes culminates in a demonstration of learning, showcasing for families and the community what our scholars have learned. Our arts and physical education programs include:
