School plays, art receptions, parent education nights and athletic events address the wide variety of interests that exist in our school community. Parents also meet in special volunteer groups or gather for grade level meetings throughout the school year. As our name indicates, we are a school that prepares students for post-secondary education. Our curriculum encourages students to use their natural curiosity and to develop flexibility in thinking and perception. Our small class size provides for a more personal approach to each child's education.
Faculty members encourage their students to become self-confident, effective communicators.
University Prep is committed to providing students, faculty and staff with the latest technological tools to support the school's instructional mission. Our intent is to acquaint students with the technology they will be using when they enter higher education and to maximize the use of faculty and administrative resources. One of our main goals is to help students and families realize the importance of learning as a daily process. University Prep's academic program affords all members of our community, adults as well as students, the opportunity to gain an understanding of themselves as lifelong learners. In recognizing and understanding the rapid and unique developmental growth during early adolescence, the Middle School of University Prep is committed to providing a supportive, structured, and challenging environment in which to learn.
