U Prep Schools remains committed to providing unique learning experiences beyond the classroom, to ignite the gifts, talents, and genius within. We seek to develop and sustain partnerships with like-missioned organizations that reinforce our network’s efforts toward improved student outcomes to develop the whole child.

We offer a variety of afterschool programs such as chess club, swim, culinary and anime. Many of our after-school experiences are offered at no cost to our families. Please contact the SOM at your child’s school for more information about the after-school programs available at your favorite U Prep School. 

U Prep Schools engages families throughout the school year. We invite you to stay connected to your scholar’s teacher, their school leadership team, and the overall school community during monthly parent meetings and other family engagement events and opportunities. Connect with your scholar’s school today by joining their parent/family organization. Reach out to your school operations manager to obtain more information.

In a city with a history of having low high school graduation rates, the founders of U Prep Schools wanted to make a difference in the lives of children and in the delivery of education in Detroit. 

As one of the oldest and largest charter schools in the city, U Prep Schools was founded based on the belief that measurable outcomes will guide us in the work that we do.

Aligning with the schools’ mission of ensuring that students are prepared for college and to achieve success in life, the founders, board, school leaders, and faculty made a promise that 90% of the students served will graduate and be accepted to a college of their choice. This promise, known as the Detroit 90/90 Promise has been consistently measured and achieved for the past 20 years.

Known as innovators in urban education, the Detroit 90/90 Promise is U Prep’s oldest and most distinctive defining difference.
