Bronx Prep is part of Democracy Prep Public Schools, a network of 18 high-performing schools with the mission to educate responsible citizen-scholars for success and a life of active citizenship. Their low-cost college-like campus in the South Bronx houses a middle school, an upper school, and a multiuse “gymnatorium”, fostering the educational ideals of 800-students inside one city block. The self-contained welcoming spaces and the distinctly identifiable architectural forms represent a haven for students and express the hopes and opportunities of high-quality education.
