Mission Statement
Boulder Preparatory High School is a Free-No-Fee College Preparatory Community that encourages the pursuit of knowledge and education as an intervention for youth, particularly those who may be "off-track." We strive to graduate young people ready and eager to meet the challenges of college and adulthood with an appreciation of their responsibilities to themselves and to the global community. Upon leaving us, they will be as college (or workforce) ready as possible, with a variety of hands-on opportunities provided along their educational journey.
About This Cause
In 1997 the founders of Boulder Preparatory High School saw an opportunity to create a charter high school that would use research-based, alternative strategies to create an innovative college preparatory program. The school would engage youth who were frustrated and disillusioned with the traditional high school environment. Over twenty years later, Boulder Prep still sees disenfranchised youth who have, for a variety of reasons, not made a meaningful connection with their school and/or their education. Here, we offer up the opportunity to find a way of learning that works for all. We put forward our best efforts to engage as many students as possible so that they can be successful, functioning adults in both higher education and the work force. We encourage and support students to value the pursuit of education as a way to improve their own lives. The vision of Boulder Preparatory High School is to have a diverse and varied educational community, full of students who celebrate their individualism while participating in the school community in a meaningful and impactful way. We teach in an environmentally efficient facility that provides resources for experiential learning. We will continue to serve between 100-150 students and provide a comprehensive college preparatory program on a Free-No-Fee basis. Our goal is to continue offering exemplary programs such as core classes, life skills, ACT, stories and service learning, and further develop our newer initiatives such as STEM education, academic intensives, after-school activities, and early college credit opportunities. Our faculty will receive competitive compensation and ongoing professional development in exchange for achieving excellence in fulfilling their classroom and community responsibilities. The administration will continue to promote the strengths of the staff using a collaborative decision-making process that holds all members accountable.
