Welcome to Prep Academy Schools .... At Prep Academy Schools, we are developing a generation of young people who will compete and excel not only in their future education, but in the ever-increasingly competitive world they will face. We believe what goes into the mind of a child, comes out in the life of an adult, so we are preparing each and every Prep student to be leaders in their future adult world. How are Prep Academy Schools different from other childcare programs and preschools you'll find? We are a locally owned non-profit school, dedicated to serving the families of the Columbus area for the benefit of future generations, offering scholarships & financial aid to nearly every student. We are held to more rigorous standards, based on the prestigious Ohio Department of Education guidelines, with certified teachers and small class size. We have the most advanced technology of any preschool in the area, with state-of-the-art Computer/MAC Labs, Media Rooms and Smart Boards. We include enrichment activities, such as Music, Art, Spanish, Computers and Sign Language in each child's day, and these activities are all included in tuition. There are no extra fees. Dance, Yoga and Tae Kwon Do are also available. The children in our program are having so much fun they don't even realize they are receiving an Accelerated Learning Experience! Our approach is positive and proactive. We focus on challenging and stretching, rather than pushing, the student. We offer the individualized attention that is only feasible in an environment with limited class sizes. Our certified and experienced teachers know each student and his or her specific learning style, needs, and abilities. This keeps each student challenged, while ensuring that no one is left behind. We offer before- and after-school programs, which are an extension to the learning experience, providing parents with peace of mind and freedom to pursue personal and professional responsibilities. Summer camp programs and classes keep your child's active mind engaged in learning while the regular school year is out. Check out our summer programs to see the variety of fun and exciting summer activities we offer! How we prepare our children today starting at birth is the key to their success in the future. We all owe our children the best education money can buy, and that's what we offer at Prep Academy Schools!
