Academic Programs

English/Language Arts

Reading is fundamental! Here at Bessie Sherrod Price Preparatory Academy, we make sure that our students have extended time for reading and language arts skills each day. BSP students learn reading skills by engaging in rich, rigorous, and engaging texts. Reading class feels more like “book club” and our students learn to LOVE good books!

Mathematics

Mathematics is a part of everyday life. We teach math using a common-core aligned curriculum that pushes our students to think critically about math in everyday life. Whether it’s baking cookies, telling time, and counting toys in elementary school or calculating square footage of rooms, figuring out the price of fabric per square foot, or filing taxes as an adult, math is a crucial part of every day. Our students experience math by practicing facts and learning the HOW and WHY behind why math works to find practical solutions to day-to-day problems.

Arts

Being involved in arts programs is an excellent way for students to strengthen their communication skills, and social-emotional skills while learning and having fun. At BSP, we offer programs in the arts including; Ballet, Choir, Dance, Drumline, and Drama.
