OVERVIEW
About

VISION University Prep Schools provides a culturally responsive educational experience for our scholars that builds academic competence, habits of work, scholarship, and self-actualization, empowering them to successfully accomplish their post-secondary plans, as well as socially and civically engaged as change agents for themselves and their community. Culture High Expectations Permeate Every Facet Of Our Work – We intentionally cultivate an environment that reflects our values. Our traditions, experiences and structures develop engaged, college-bound students. College Bound – We ensure our students will be college ready through the development of strong work habits and a growth mindset. Our students understand the significance of a college degree and align their efforts in school with a college-bound trajectory. Character – U Prep’s core values are developed and harnessed as a means of contributing to the community. Our students take pride in their community and demonstrate their pride through their actions and words. Our visible environment is a reflection of our values. Student Ownership – Students internalize and value the culture of high expectations within U Prep schools. They reflect on how this culture manifests itself through their academic and character development. Key moments- serve as capstone projects for students.
