What Parents Should Know

Lorain Preparatory High School is a charter school: publicly funded, but run with more independence than a traditional district school. Many charters are built around a specific model or focus, so it's worth understanding this one's mission, how enrollment works, and how it differs from the district schools nearby.
56% of students at Lorain Preparatory High School were chronically absent in the 2022-23 school year, above the national average.
