What is Boston Prep?
Boston Prep is a college-preparatory charter public district, made up of a single-site middle and high school.
In 2023-2024, our community will include 700 students in grades 6-12, nearly 500 alumni, over 150 faculty members, and hundreds of families. The majority of our students and families reside in Dorchester, Roxbury, Mattapan, and Hyde Park. As a charter public school, we welcome all students via an impartial public lottery, and hold the same high expectations and ambitions for all of our students, including those with special needs and English language learners.
What Do We Believe?
At Boston Prep, our mission is to prepare students to succeed in a four-year college and embody, in thought and action, lifelong ethical growth.
We foster an environment structured around accelerating academic growth, as demonstrated by our extended school day and school year.
We believe that to do this work effectively, relationships are the heart of our community and an understanding of anti-racism is critical in serving our community effectively.
To achieve our ambitious goals, our approach includes six essential beliefs that we believe leads to our success:
We have an exceptional adult team; we are
One Team
.
We hold high expectations for all students.
We foster ethical growth, inside and outside of the classroom.
We have an invested, passionate student culture, balanced by structure and joy.
We offer a range of support, academic, social, and emotional, to all students.
We ensure college persistence through a number of student and alumni support.
What Do We Value?
Our mission guides Boston Prep and our values guide how we work together as a One Team.
Our values hold us accountable to ourselves, to one another, to our students, and to our families.
They remind us of how we strive to do the work of our achieving mission together, united as a One Team. Our One Team’s values:
We are mission driven.
Everyone is here for the same reasons.
Organizational changes are required to achieve the mission.
We believe all of us, in every step of our journey, have room to improve.
Staff actions drive student results.

At Boston Preparatory School we acknowledge barriers to opportunities that exist within the job seeking market. Many potential candidates shy away from applying due to lack of confidence in their skills and imposter syndrome. As we do our part to dismantle these barriers within our own recruitment processes, we encourage candidates from all walks of life, especially those from marginalized backgrounds, to apply and make positive change within the lives of our students.
