Show Your APA Teacher You Care

Our goal is to have every family participate in whatever way they can!

 

Since its inception, APA has utilized a Merit Pay Program, unique in the education field, to provide annual bonuses to all teachers and staff.  APEF established the Teaching Excellence Fund to attract and retain high-quality teachers and staff for the American Preparatory Schools.   

The foundation and the school’s governing board are uniting their efforts to increase the school’s ability to attract and retain excellent teachers by strengthening the Merit Pay Program.  

This is a great opportunity for parents to make a positive impact on the quality of the teachers and staff working in the schools.  Please watch this video to learn how you can support APA.

What Makes APA Different

APA offers an innovative small group learning experience. This requires more teachers in the classroom and it reaps extraordinary results, such as our Best High Schools U.S. News ranking. This requires a higher investment in resources than traditional institutions. 

Why does APA need my help?

 
  • Local school districts receive much more money per student than APA
  • APA can’t raise property taxes in order to compete, our only option is to turn to our families
  • The wealthiest school districts are waging a price war for our best teachers

Our teachers love and embrace APA’s approach to the learning experience, but salary is still a significant factor in where the best teachers choose to work.

APA Teaching Excellence fund

American Prep Academy is proud to announce the APA Teaching Excellence Fund, a private reserve that will sustain a stable and committed teaching staff, enabling your children to continue to flourish here at APA.

100% of your donation will fully go towards retaining APA teachers and staff. Your donation is tax deductible.

If everyone does what they can, we can compete, keep our best teachers and preserve the APA we love.
