About the Learning Program

Redesigned in 2019 as part of a small school initiative, Kiley Prep promotes authentic learning focused on three dimensions of success: mastery of knowledge and skills, character, and high-quality student work.
Robust and deep community partnerships extend the school day and year for students.
