High School Academic Philosophy
Devon Preparatory School is singularly focused on the holistic education of young men- not just for college, but for the rest of their lives. By operating our school at real-world standards, our young men are well-positioned to succeed and be leaders for their callings beyond Devon Prep.
In a trusting and supportive atmosphere our students are motivated to excel academically, to think critically and creatively, to pursue careers in diverse fields, and to enjoy extracurricular activities, both in school and in the community. We educate and inspire our students by holding them accountable to the highest academic and moral standards, and through the support of the entire Devon Prep community, students learn how to demand high standards from themselves.

College Prep
One of the most compelling reasons to choose Devon Prep is the superior academic preparation our students receive for college. Devon’s key differentiator is our focus on offering the highest quality education via a challenging curriculum, taught by a well-credentialed faculty with a deep personal alignment to our mission. Devon students learn to focus on the learning process, not just the outcomes, and in doing so they increase their attention, develop critical thinking skills, and practice true learning.
Education for Life
The Devon experience is based on the Piarist Fathers’ 400-year tradition of educating youth. Fundamental to their philosophy is the development of beliefs that foster a love of God, a positive self- image, and respect for others. Our high school program includes requirements in the arts, humanities, STEM disciplines and perhaps more-importantly, Christian service, fostering the growth of well-rounded young men who embody the Piarist values.
