History
Established in 2001.
Founded by local entrepreneurs and educators, Prep Academy Schools is certified by the rigorous standards of the Ohio Department of Education, teaching an accelerated curriculum™, distinguishing us from all other Preschools in the Central Ohio area.
At Prep Academy, we are committed to an individualized learning experience for each child, small class size, pervasive use of technology, and a clean, secure learning environment in ultra-modern facilities. Our goal is not only to offer academic excellence to our students, but also to develop in them the highest level of moral, ethical and personal integrity, and instill in them traditional values of patriotism, family connectedness, and spiritual accountability.
We strive to develop a unique, creative, loving and nurturing atmosphere where learning is challenging yet fun. As a result, we have earned a reputation as the early childhood education leader in Central Ohio and the nickname «The Harvard of Preschools»!
