Leadership Prep Brownsville Middle Academy builds upon the strong education students receive in the Elementary Academy to help our scholars fulfill their mission of entering, succeeding in, and graduating from college. Middle school is a point of transition, a time when a sense of responsibility, a love of learning, and a concept of self-identity are established. The Middle Academy seeks to give our scholars a firm foundation to stand upon during this critical time, through our combination of a rigorous college-preparatory curriculum, engaging lessons taught by teachers who are both warm and strict, mandatory participation in enrichment teams, a school-wide emphasis on reading, and a community dedicated to our core values : being mindful of others, achieving in our studies, professional in our actions, and prepared to work hard. With this foundation, and with the unwavering love and support their families demonstrate daily, we are confident that all of our scholars will find success on the road to and through college.
