Lake Mary Preparatory School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lake Mary Preparatory School is a coeducational, non-sectarian, independent school founded in 1999. Located on forty-seven acres in Lake Mary, Florida, the school blends typical core college preparatory curriculum with progressive interdisciplinary teaching styles. The school has an athletic complex which includes a soccer/football field, a baseball field, a track, and five tennis courts. Construction began on a new softball field, behind the baseball field.

Lake Mary Prep's reputation was tarnished in 2004, when former principal Rex Steven Clark was charged with embezzling over $1 million from the school. [1]
