We’d like to celebrate the Vista College Prep soccer team’s outstanding 9-1 regular season!

At Vista College Prep, we believe all students should have the opportunity and choice to attend college, and we believe that preparation starts in kindergarten. But we can’t get our scholars to college without emphasizing the importance of a great high school experience. We pride ourselves in taking the steps to work with each of our eighth graders and their families to ensure they graduate from our school and persist to a high school that will continue to prepare them for success in college and beyond. 

Vista College Prep is thrilled to join the Metro District community with plans to open a new campus in August 2022. The new location, Vista College Prep-Metro North, will serve Kinder through 8th grade scholars at full scale.

If I am being completely honest, I came across Vista College Prep—Hadley by accident, but “there is no such thing as accident; it is fate misnamed,” Napoleon said.

It can be challenging for parents to find a school that is a good fit for their child. Many worry about the academics, whether their child will fall behind, and the amount of personalized attention their child will receive each day. However, at Vista College Prep, we’ve been the highest performing school serving low-income students in Phoenix for the past four years. Here’s how we meet and exceed the expectations for academic excellence, leadership development, and community involvement year after year. 

Thousands of parents across Arizona are facing weekly disruption to their children’s educational as the COVID-19 pandemic has forced schools to close across the state. These families want the best for their children: high-quality instruction from professionally trained educators, equity for all students, and preparation for lifelong success.

At Vista College Preparatory, we have the same desires for our scholars and have transitioned our classes to online virtual classrooms. Our charter school keeps your scholar’s educational career on track and helps them develop a learning routine that will benefit their future. 

For a student, there’s nothing more exciting than piling into a yellow school bus on field trip day. Whether it’s a trip to the zoo, a museum, a theater, or a university, each excursion helps to expand a student’s worldview and solidify the abstract concepts they’ve learned in the classroom. However, for many schools, field trips are being increasingly cut from school calendars.

Parents want more for their children:  more high-quality instruction from skilled, compassionate teachers, more education equity for all students, and more preparation for success.  At Vista College Preparatory (VCP), we are focused on giving your child more.
