Glendale Preparatory Academy is a state-chartered public school offering a liberal arts education rooted in the western literary and philosophic tradition, and committed to the pursuit of truth, goodness, and beauty. Our academy embraces wisdom and virtue as the proper ends of education, and our school culture is ordered to help foster great-hearted young men and women. Glendale Prep’s rigorous seven year curriculum culminates in a four year sequence of Humane Letters seminars in which our students read, contemplate, and discuss the Great Books from Plato’s Republic to Dostoyevsky’s Brothers Karamazov.
