PRESTIGE PREPARATORY ACADEMY

Prestige Preparatory Academy is a Title I public charter elementary school that is part of the Charleston 01 school district, located in North Charleston, SC with about 61 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 5th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 5 teachers, Prestige Preparatory Academy has a student/teacher ratio of about 12:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Prestige Preparatory Academy, located at 415 Avenue F in North Charleston, South Carolina, is a public charter school that serves students in grades 5 through 8.

By integrating a challenging curriculum with personalized support, Prestige Preparatory aims to foster a college-preparatory mindset from an early age.
