My name is Zofia, and I’m the middle school student council president. I’m a volleyball player, I participate in theater, and I’m a lifer here at Charlotte Prep. When I reflect on my time here, every day has been so special that it's hard to choose just a few moments to share, but I'm going to try.

Immediately when I came to Prep, I got the sense that this is a place that truly understands children. The philosophy is centered on this fleeting, magical, and sacred time we call childhood. And in no way does this school underestimate children either. From day one,children are treated as capable individuals and future leaders, given responsibility and made to feel part of a community.

My name is Brooke, and I am currently serving as Charlotte Prep student council vice president. I feel as though I’ve truly grown up at Charlotte Prep. I have attended this school since kindergarten and have appreciated the nurturing, supportive, and inclusive community throughout my years here.
