Academics
By providing excellence in education at Everglades Preparatory Academy, we spark curiosity, and our students ask questions. We collaborate on real issues and our students see the world from a new perspective. We view learning as meaningful opportunities focusing on technology, math and science, the use of digital tools, and emphasizing school-wide and individual character building.
Schools are about students and our students are at the center of every decision we make. From our in coming middle school 8th graders to our graduating seniors, we design learning that engages creativity, motivates critical thinking, and inspires collaboration. In turn, our students stretch and grow beyond their wildest imaginations preparing them for future of endless possibilities.
CURRICULUM GUIDES/COURSEWORK
Our developmentally responsive curriculum provides dynamic learning activities that allow students to grow in confidence.
A balance of content mastery and skill development ensures that students are ready for their next exciting learning opportunity.
The middle and high school curriculum is based upon the state curriculum frameworks and course description by the Florida Standards and the Next Generation Sunshine State Standards prescribed by the Florida State Department of Education.
Policies and Procedures
As with all Policies and Procedures handbook it is important to try to list every possible situation that might arise in a school. We have attempted to cover as many areas of concern as possible. Please consult with the administrative team should there be any questions regarding the expectations of the handbook.
Please read this handbook very carefully. We also require you to read the School District Student Code of Conduct via the district website. Students will be provided a page that requires the signature of the student and parent/guardian. The signed formed must be returned to school for placement in the student file.
