Smith Preparatory Academy

Cultivating Christian Virtue, Recovering Christian Humanism

Company Information

HISTORY

Smith Prep was founded as a tutorial service in 1994 under the leadership of Scott Smith. Mr. Smith’s desire was to make the riches of classical education available to home-educated students. Over the years the program grew to include students ranging from middle to high school age over multiple campuses across Central Florida.

 

In 2010, Mr. Michael Phillips took over leadership of the school from Mr. Smith. Under Mr. Phillips’ direction, Smith Prep added a lower school program in 2012, began offering dual enrollment classes in 2015, and, in 2016, achieved formal status as a private school.

 

At the heart of our program is a devotion to cultivating in our students a deep love of God, the world He has made, and the Church He has redeemed. This has remained Smith Prep’s purpose throughout its history.

 

Smith Prep exists to establish a community of virtuous scholars seeking to advance God’s kingdom both locally and throughout the world.  Smith Prep provides students in grades PreK-12 with the highest quality Christian classical education, seeks to cultivate Christian virtue, and promotes the recovery of Christian humanism.
