Pelham Preparatory Academy

High expectations for achievement, positive self-esteem, and strong values enable our students to progress towards adulthood and effective community participation. Our school is committed to a challenging academic program. Our classes are small and the teachers and staff work closely with students and families. Our partner, the University of Vermont, begins working with ninth graders and the relationship continues through graduation.
