Our School

Roseland University Prep is a small college preparatory high school located in the heart of the Roseland Community. Roseland University Prep opened in 2004 with the purpose of giving each student the opportunity to take college prep classes which would prepare them to attend a four-year university. Our mission is to create a positive learning environment in which all students are encouraged and assisted in preparing themselves for the future: this includes high school graduation, completion of a post-secondary goal, and, ultimately, leadership positions within the community.

Our college-bound culture is based on high standards that support a rigorous academic program. Our dedicated teachers foster a culture of learning and commitment to post-secondary preparation for all students. Graduation rates are nearly perfect each year and all students graduate with a plan for their future success.
