Colleton Preparatory Academy has provided me with an exceptional learning environment. I attended public schools in the Colleton County School District from first grade to eighth grade. After making the switch to Colleton Preparatory Academy during my freshman year of high school, I can honestly say that I should have moved sooner. Colleton Prep is more than just a school, it is a family.

Great small school for sports and education. I am very pleased with their effort to help students achieve their goals in nit only sports but in education as well. sports at collation prep are very successful with over 25 state championships between all the sports and numerous appearances in a state championship game. Lunch room food is very good but there is always some room for improvement. One thing I did like about the food is it varies from week to week. Overall I am pleased with my time at CPA.
