Course Plan

The plan below identifies the typical four-year curriculum plan for high school students. This plan lists both required courses and elective options by grade level. Note: students may take more than one elective.

When students graduate from Leadership Prep Academy, they leave not only with a solid academic foundation but they also take with them a genuine understanding of the world, and respect for differences, both cultural and academic. Their education has equipped them with a sense of academic responsibility and independence and encouraged them to be responsible, informed and caring members of society.
