Carolina Preparatory Academy Ribbon Cutting

First Day of School Ribbon Cutting Ceremony

Celebrating the Launch of Carolina Preparatory Academy

Join us as we mark a historic milestone in education with the official ribbon cutting ceremony for Carolina Preparatory Academy, a newly named institution redefining excellence in global education right here in the Triangle.

Carolina Preparatory Academy is proud to be the first and only independent school in North Carolina to offer students in grades 6-12 the prestigious International Baccalaureate (IB) continuum, including both the Middle Years Programme (MYP) and Diploma Programme (DP).

This celebration marks more than just a name change it signifies a bold new chapter in cultivating globally minded, academically prepared, and community-oriented leaders. Through rigorous, interdisciplinary learning, including a standout environmental studies program and a commitment to local and global service, our students are empowered to lead purposeful, impactful lives in college and beyond.

Come be part of this exciting beginning as we open our doors to a future of innovation, global citizenship, and academic excellence.
