Student-Centered Learning


At Aurum Preparatory Academy (Aurum Prep), we operate a student-centered learning model where we provide individualized support to each student. By focusing on the individual needs of students both academically and socio-emotionally, no student is left behind, and our students feel supported and comfortable throughout their middle school journey.


With our student-centered learning model, we are able to help students 1:1 through both our Advisory model and the individualized focus we give to Math and ELA. This level of support repeatedly delivers great results and allows our students to accomplish things they previously thought impossible. By knowing our youth and showing up for them where they are, we push the envelope further in the directions of their dreams.



Trust, Optimism, and Courage

In order to learn, students need to trust their teachers and feel safe in their school.The middle school years are a critical time for students to develop an understanding of their own strengths and areas for growth. Teaching our students to focus on Growth, Optimism, Leadership, and Design Thinking directly leads to positive character development and a lifetime of success.


This is our mission and our promise at Aurum Prep. Through rigorous instruction and positive character education, Aurum Preparatory Academy educates all students in grades 6 through 8 to succeed in high school, college, and life, and serve as the next generation of moral leaders.


These key life skills are instrumental in leading the way for student-centered learning.




Students Taking the Lead


Our student-centered learning model empowers our students to stay engaged, participate, and speak up, knowing that their voices matter. Students at Aurum Prep understand they are here to become leaders.


We are highly communicative with our families so they know their student’s achievements, and we call home to share positive news regularly. Our small, safe school makes caring for, supporting, and showering every Aurum Prep student with praise easy; our hearts and theirs -- are gold.
