Boulder Preparatory High School

"As a parent, I was searching for a school that would embrace my son's unique qualities and challenges that are not appreciated in conventional schools. My son has disabilities as well as anxiety issues in social settings. He was an easy target and his social/emotional needs were not met that he could not stay in one school for more than two years. In middle school, bullying got so bad that he could not function in school any longer and had to be home-schooled. Boulder Prep has been literally a life saver for my son and my family. All the teachers and staff at Prep are exceptional human beings who would go extra miles and do anything for their students' well-being. They teach not only subject matters but about relationships, life skills, and simply about life. They are safe adults whom my son can go to and talk about problems when he is having a tough time. My son is accepted for who he is and he feels comfortable and safe at school. He looks forward to go to school everyday, and the fact that he has friends is a complete turn-around from six months ago. As a parent, I cannot ask for more."

"Boulder Prep is the school that put me on the path of success not only in an educational standpoint but as a person too. The staff and faculty at Boulder Prep are committed to helping students achieve their dreams of graduating from high school while providing a safe and supportive environment. The students at Boulder Prep are a collective of brilliant minds and unique individuals that most other schools wouldn't deal with. At Boulder Prep I feel like I can explain my problems to both students and teachers without having to be afraid of being pushed to the side or ridiculed. Everyone at school feels like family and the school, a second home."

"Ever since her first day, my niece has been excited about high school and about Boulder Prep. She tends to be shy, and had not had a positive high school experience at that point, but found that right away people made her feel at home. She has now been there for a year and even went to summer school which Boulder Prep offers. It's a small school where both the students and teachers make everyone feel included. It's challenging scholastically, but teachers are there to help, and classes are made to feel relevant. There's a real feeling of community at Boulder Prep. I'm so grateful for this wonderful school."

"Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! A thousand times thanks to the entire staff at Boulder Prep! When my daughter walked across the podium on graduation day and received her Boulder Prep High School diploma she was a reclaimed and revitalized person compared with the girl who first walked through their doors. She quickly came to love her new school, and considered it (in her words) "like family!" Boulder Prep gives each of its students a "front row seat!" The school teaches & guides its students; instills confidence in its students; and even hosts a warm & yummy kitchen that feeds their tummies full! Boulder Prep gave my daughter guidance, pep talks, inspiration, lectures and support. Her academic success at Boulder Prep gave her self-confidence (and GPA) a big boost. And thanks to the school's ACT prep class full of strategies, encouragement, and a delicious test morning breakfast, my daughter was able to raise her ACT score enough to gain admission to a university. Our community is so fortunate to have Boulder Prep! And our family is extremely grateful. Boulder Prep helped guide my daughter towards a bright and promising future."

"Change is where life begins. Boulder Prep, is the only high school I would ever want to go back to (which when possible I choose to visit ). The experiences i had at Boulder Prep are like no other. Boulder Prep provides a great learning atmosphere for students and teachers to learn in. Boulder Prep I believe helps change people into the better. My time at Boulder Prep was short, but needed and loved and I would NEVER regret going to that school, honestly looking back on it there is nothing I would ever change about that school. The people, food, environment, activities, head master, teachers, stories and best of all the unity is through time what changed me as a person and made me a better person. Yes there were some bitter moments but there were VERY few of those in the grand scheme of things. I am so great full I had the opportunity to attend such a life changing school."
