CORNERSTONE PREPARATORY SCHOOL

Best Practices + Best Teachers = Cornerstone Prep

Cornerstone Prep is a very unique elementary school. The school structure, perspective, methods and systems are based on the best practices from high-performing schools across the country. These best practices, infused with character education that dominate the school culture, make Cornerstone Prep a distinctive institution.
