Commitment:
We serve 49 students. Capers Prep has a nine month school year calendar with 6.5 hours of structured learning daily. The week starts on Monday and ends on Friday.
Since the school opened, all of our graduates have been accepted into college programs.
Our success to date is attributed to the talent and passion of our teachers, parents, students, and the commitment of community members. As well as those, near and far who have shown support of time and resources. We could not provide for our students without their support.
Sponsors:
Assistance has come in the form of full or partial scholarships for our students as well as gifts of time, prayer and other valuable items necessary to make Capers work each and every day. We are a 501c3 organization and solicit your support.
