Capital Preparatory Harbor School

Transforming Education for Future Leaders

Capital Preparatory Schools began with a simple yet powerful question posed by a concerned parent: "Why is it that only rich kids get good schools?" This inquiry sparked a movement led by Dr. Steve Perry, who dedicated years to developing a model that effectively prepares students from historically disadvantaged backgrounds for college success. Since its inception in 2005, Capital Prep Magnet School in Hartford, Connecticut, has established a proven track record of sending 100% of its predominantly low-income first-generation graduates to college.

A Proven Model of Success

The Capital Prep model emphasizes a nurturing environment, strong student-teacher relationships, and a rigorous college-preparatory curriculum. This approach not only fosters academic excellence but also instills the character and social justice values necessary for students to become responsible and engaged citizens. The demand for this transformative educational model has led to the expansion of Capital Preparatory Schools, with new locations opening in Bridgeport, Harlem, and the Bronx.

Impacting Lives and Communities

Since 2005, Capital Prep has maintained a 100% college acceptance rate for its graduates, demonstrating the effectiveness of its educational approach. Thousands of students continue to apply for enrollment, eager to benefit from the opportunities provided by Capital Prep. The commitment to equal access is evident in the random lottery admissions process, ensuring that all students, regardless of their socioeconomic status, have the chance to succeed.
