Welcome to Urban Leadership Preparatory Academy!
Overview
Urban Leadership Preparatory Academy is a college preparatory school serving 50 New Haven residents grades 8.5-12. The current state of affairs in the New Haven community suggests a need for an educational environment that prepares promising students for positions of leadership in their communities. While many of the failed reform efforts have been externally imposed by city officials onto New Haven communities, graduates of LPA will be prepared to develop leadership and change initiatives from within their roles in the community, increasing the likelihood for successful and long-lasting change.
Mission Statement
Urban Leadership Preparatory Academy seeks to prepare New Haven students to serve their communities through leadership roles. Our aim is to target students who are not achieving at their highest potential at their traditional school. Our alternative education model will work toward garnering each student’s potential, and channeling it into positive change in their own lives, their families, and their communities.
