High School Academics

UPrep is a dynamic, vibrant community and a place of growth for our students and teachers. I appreciate that everyone shares different parts of their identity here, like the athlete who is also a performing musician, or the math teacher who is also a competitive Ultimate player. I also like the fact that fundamentally we are all problem solvers and leaders.” –Director of Upper School Susie Wu

UPrep's Upper School (or high school) curriculum includes a remarkable breadth and depth of subject matter and is constantly evolving to meet the needs of our students. Our teachers design courses that foster intellectual curiosity, appropriately challenge every student, and build essential skills for academic success.

At our private high school, courses are updated and revised each year to reflect and adapt to contemporary themes and values. Most recently, we have created new engineering, science, history, and computer science courses so that students may gain the knowledge and skills essential for participation in our modern society.

Our 100+ elective and intensive courses give students the opportunity to go deeper into the subjects that spark their interest and get a head start on career exploration. Upper School students may also take fully online courses for credit through Global Online Academy, a consortium of 60 leading independent schools in the U.S. and abroad.

At UPrep, I felt as though I could explore any existing or newfound interest. People change a lot over the course of high school, and UPrep seemed to not only encourage that change but celebrate it." –UPrep alum
