World Journalism Preparatory: A College Board School

About this school

Public choice option that is not guaranteed by address and generally depends on district choice or broader application rules.

World Journalism Preparatory School (WJPS) is a place where students feel known, heard, and supported. Our students like the opportunities we present for self-directed learning and enjoy being active participants in a school culture they help build. They also enjoy using technology across the curriculum, joining clubs, and participating in student government. WJPS was designated a "Respect for All" school in 2019. Parents value our project-based learning activities and our advisory classes that build relationships with students and teachers. They also appreciate that our seven-year curriculum carries students through a challenging, yet personalized, middle and high school program. All students have a WJPS email account and a locker. A robust school website, newspaper, broadcast program, online communications system (PupilPath) and other tools means that students and families are always in touch, and aware of school activities. The WJPS motto is "Don't stop until you're proud," and this is evident in our 97% high school graduation rate. It is expected that middle school students come to WJPS for a seven-year program (grades 6-12) that allows them to seamlessly transition to high school.
