GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Needs work but ok school. The school has good bones but issues when it comes to resources and academics hold it back and make it harder for students to do well when it comes to colleges.

My experience at Young Men's' Preparatory has been one that I'll truly never forget. The environment was an uplifting one. The teachers were always available for questions and for really interesting advice on how to prepare for college and life outside of school. Young Men's' Preparatory Academy has made me an overall better person and has shown me the path for a better future.

Just as when a student transfers schools, Young Men's Prep had its ups and downs, making mistakes, and to make mistakes is human. Young Men's Prep has l...

This is a great school and it has been a blessing for my son to attend this school. The caring teachers, small class size, motivational speakers, drilling of the principles to success have contributed to my son becoming a great student and leader. There has been a teacher turn over in some areas lik...
