Boston Prep Family and Student Handbook

Welcome to Boston Prep's Phoenix Family! You have joined a community committed to your success every step of the way - from 6th grade through college graduation and beyond! 

Our success as a school relies strongly on our partnership and deep relationships with students and families. Within this Handbook, families can find a general description of the policies and procedures of Boston Prep relating to students and families as of the time of publication.

This Handbook is a living document that can change over time as needed in response to a changing environment. The Handbook will be updated as necessary throughout the year, and families will be informed of any substantial changes to the Handbook via our e-newsletter.
