Conservatory Prep Senior High:
Featuring college-prep courses combined with theatre, art and music, Conservatory Prep Senior High provides and environment to enhance the creativity and intellectual curiosity of the gifted learner.

Conservatory Prep Senior High has been a culmination of the combined visions of concerned members of the community, educators, the Fort Lauderdale Children's Theatre and my own. Having myself experienced a variety of educational settings, including a Waldorf school, public and prep schools, it is paramount that education must take place in a safe and nurturing environment. An environment where individuality is respected and one's own identity is fostered.

The shared vision of a school where a student's individual needs are met, where subjects are studied in depth for understanding, and where a community of learners is developed through the arts, has finally become a reality. Conservatory prep realizes that every student has a gift and all students with desire can achieve. It is my conviction that rote memorization and teaching to the test does not prepare an individual for higher education, nor for life.

The mission of Conservatory Prep Senior High is to build a strong learning community amongst its students and faculty by infusing the passion of the cultural arts and experiential learning into the curriculum. Conservatory Prep was designed for the creative, inquisitive learner who prefers a nurturing environment geared towards freedom of expression through the arts.
