About Capital Preparatory Schools
Capital Preparatory Schools is a charter school management organization operating a network of educational communities. Our mission is to build a path where there was none. From its inception the Capital Prep community-our scholars, parents, faculty, and staff-have committed to creating a compelling and meaningful educational experience. The Capital Preparatory Schools has four school locations, one in Harlem, NY, one in the Bronx, NY, and two locations in Bridgeport, Connecticut, providing students in grades K-12 with a year-round college-preparatory education that encourages students to become scholars and agents of change.
Capital Preparatory Schools believes that all children, when given the right conditions and environment, will succeed and excel in their academic and social-emotional growth. This is achieved by blending elements of academic models that successfully support scholars from historically disadvantaged populations with innovative approaches that get 100 of our graduates accepted to four-year colleges.
