Welcome Back, Capital Prep Scholars & Families!

Dear Capital Prep Families,

Tomorrow is the day! Tuesday, August 25 marks the first day of the 2026-2027 school year, and we are SO excited to welcome our scholars back to Capital Prep!

Thank you to all of the families who joined us today for our Family Meet & Greet. Seeing so many returning scholars and meeting our new students truly energized me for the year ahead. We are ready!

A Few Important Reminders

First Two Days — Early Release
Tuesday, August 25, and Wednesday, August 26, are half days with an 11:00 a.m. dismissal.

Uniforms Matter
Scholars should arrive in complete Capital Prep uniform each day. Our uniform helps establish the pride, professionalism, and sense of belonging we expect from every scholar.

No Cell Phones or Outside Technology
No students should bring or use personal technology during the school day. This includes cell phones, iPads, tablets, Apple Watches and other smartwatches, gaming systems, earbuds/AirPods, and similar devices. Instructional technology will be provided by the school when needed.

Attendance Matters
Every day and every minute count! Please make getting to school on time, every day, a priority. Consistent attendance is essential to student success.

Most importantly, let’s start strong! We are ready to learn, build relationships, establish routines, and make this an extraordinary year at Capital Prep.

Welcome back, Capital Prep family! Let’s get to work!

With excitement,

Dr. Kitsia H. Ferguson
Principal
Capital Preparatory Magnet School

Uniform Donations needed! Please see the flyer for all of the details! Thank You!
