BOARD/MEMBERS VISIT TAMPA ACADEMY PREP

MORE THAN A MIDDLE SCHOOL - GREAT EXPECTATIONS, TRANSFORMING RESULTS...
Academy Prep operates two independent middle schools, 5th through 8th grades. The mission is to inspire and empower economically disadvantaged students to be future community leaders through a rigorous middle school program coupled with ongoing graduate support. All students attend on full tuition scholarships provided by the generous support of individuals, foundations and corporations throughout the Tampa Bay Area.

The School Pledge is: Standing in this room are the greatest, most committed, most responsible people this world has ever know. If it is to be, it is up to me. Yes I can! Yes I will! Yes we can! Yes we will! I am...We are... The greatest! The greatest! THE GREATEST!
The entire school gathers each morning and recites this before their day begins at 7:30 am - 6 pm each day.
