Who We Are

 

 

At  Aspen Ridge Preparatory School we are a community of learners that was built BY the community to build UP the community. We are a K-8 tuition-free public charter school (with a private preschool program) that is student centered, that is safe for all to learn and grow, and where families are involved, committed, and engaged. 

 

We share innovative thoughts and approaches that support one another, valuing academic excellence, character, and individual goals for stakeholders. We understand and value diversity, meeting students where they are and encouraging them to grow into valuable and integrated members of the community. 

 

We are a school that is committed to small class sizes, which allows us to meet the needs of each student. At ARPS, each student has a personalized education plan, updated annually, to reflect academic and behavioral goals focused on each student's needs. We pride ourselves on our low student to teacher ratio in each class, which fosters strong relationships. Everyone at ARPS has a name and is "known." No one is invisible here. 

 

We believe that school should be a safe place for all to learn and grow. We have a streamlined check in process for all visitors on campus to be identified and cross-checked through the Raptor system. We welcome our parents to observe our safety practices in action by joining our Owl Watch safety team.

 

We are fortunate to have families that are involved, committed, and engaged in their children's education. Our parents volunteer at the school when needed, donate extensively to staff appreciation events, support classroom teachers, and "show up" when someone in our community is in need of support. Our parent-run PTO is further solidifying the close connection between our parents, teachers, and students. 

 

It's a great day to be an Owl!
