Benefits of an Independent, College Preparatory School:
It is no accident that many of the best college prep schools tend to be Independent Schools, independent in their governance and their finances. This independence allows the school the freedom to set and fulfill a clear mission, to admit able learners, to have teachers who are passionate about their discipline, and to establish a curriculum focused on the concepts and skills central to success in college.
At many college prep schools, the preparation begins in prekindergarten. Teachers expect students to do homework regularly, to read broadly, to report on what they read, to plan, research, organize and present projects, to use technology as a tool, and to be involved in the life of the school. At each grade level, students add to their repertoire of skills so that by the time they enter middle school years, the demands and skills required for college-level work have become familiar habits.
