Conservatory Prep Schools

Conservatory Prep School is excellent on every level. My highly intelligent daughter who struggled with boredom, social isolation, and ADHD, has thrived beyond my expectations, and will most definitely be ready for college.

Homework is minimal. It has always been my contention that if you have a student for 8 hours per day, and they still don't know the necessary material, you have not done your job! At Conservatory Prep my daughter has a firm grasp on concepts taught and can teach them to others. In my (and many experts') view, that is the essence of all learning. In "Classical" education, this is the 3rd stage (rhetoric) of the trivium. Classical education has been the norm in modern history until the advent of the industrial revolution. At that time, education was designed to teach the masses to work in factories and on assembly lines this is an outdated and ineffective education model, which the public school systems utilize to this day. The greatest minds in history were educated using the classical model. Conservatory Prep Schools encompasses the spirit of this method using the Edluministic Learning method this allows creative students to learn through a variety of avenues sans homework!

Students are not taught in order to pass a test. Many of the teachers are award winning in their fields, and inspire students to love learning.

Our Director of Education continually travels and studies models and methods of learning that are compatible with the mission statement.

Each student is encouraged to produce their required work in accordance with their own "bent", using creative methods of their choice for each subject.

Bullying is not permitted, nor any behavior that is detrimental to another student. If situations do arise, students are assisted with conflict resolution as necessary until a solution achieved.

Perfect school for very bright students who need an alternative route in education to get to college. Conservatory Prep has one of the highest SAcS accreditation ratings in the State. Don't be fooled by all the arts, these kids are really learning and love their school!
