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,

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

that successfully support scholars from historically disadvantaged

graduates accepted to four-year colleges. Focusing on the key

develop scholars who are: Collaborators, by showing respect and
cooperation to achieve individual and common goals, Problem
Solvers, by using appropriate personal and team strategies to
address interpersonal, intrapersonal, and group conflicts,
Researcher/Information Processors, by looking for and listening
attentively to important information and utilizing the information

communities, Pillars of Knowledge, by modeling the above
expectations in our words, actions and goals. With the support of
the Capital Prep team of skilled and compassionate educators,
students realize their academic abilities, advocate for social
justice and fulfill their civic responsibilities. As leaders of
social justice, we expect our students to use their education to
improve the lives of others. Capital Preparatory Schools is
