Community Preparatory School

Private Elementary, Middle School | Grade 4-8

126 Somerset St, Providence, RI

Upper South Providence Neighborhood

Since opening its doors in 1983 with 25 students and three teachers in rented classrooms, Lower South Providence’s Community Preparatory School has come a long way. Today, the school serves 125 students from 30 countries and has graduated nearly 1,000 kids. Over 95% of the school's graduates have been accepted into college preparatory high school programs, and 83% are attending or have graduated from college. That is more than double the national average. Community Prep has grown into a model of inclusive urban education. The school is divided into four learning families: grades 4-5, grade 6, grade 7 and grade 8. Each learning family has a faculty team responsible for teaching the four core disciplines: language arts, math, science and social studies. Students have the option of participating in school athletic programs. There is also "CP After 3," the after-school program, which features study time, snacks and activities. Tuition is required for this private school, but more than 85% receive considerable financial aid.

MY experience at this school was like no other. I credit Community Preparatory school and it's staff for helping me to grow into the individual I am now. I credit CP for most of my academic success, career growth, and overall personal growth!
