Eighth graders performed a lab entitled Momentum: A Crash Lesson. Students studied the relationship between a car's momentum and the distance it pushes an object during a collision by using a computer interfaced with a motion detector that measures its velocity. Students  calculated the momentum.

Every Student a leader!

Integrating the leadership initiative with all aspects of school life…

Prep students are challenged to look beyond themselves to discover ways they can make a difference in their community and the world at large. Prep students are encouraged to willingly and voluntarily respond to the needs of their community by giving of their time, energy, and talents towards helping individuals, groups, and/or the environment, without expecting anything in return.

Preparing all students to lead lives of distinction…

A Philanthropic Community
The support of our community demonstrates a vote of confidence in Prep's future and the importance of our mission.

The amount each family and individual gives is a personal decision. Your contribution directly enhances our students' education, and we hope that all members of the Prep community will participate to the best of their ability.
