Why you’ll love

Teaching with Us

  • Our Commitment to Teachers
    An investment in the growth and development of our educators is an investment in our scholars. We know from years of research that the single greatest factor influencing the learning children do is the teacher who stands in front of them.
  • Our Culture
    U Prep is dedicated to our work for two simple reasons: We care deeply about all children and believe education is the great equalizer.
  • Teacher Compensation and Benefits
    We know you didn’t get into education to get rich, but we believe you deserve to make a respectable living. And, it shouldn’t take decades to get to that living wage – it should be within your first several years!
  • Application Process
    Our application and hiring process is all about taking the time to ensure there is a mutual fit – you’re in love with us and we’re in love with you.

My youngest daughter went to UPREP Steele St. and my oldest daughter is a teacher there. This school goes above and beyond to prepare their educators and educate their scholars. This school embraces every culture and every child is welcomed and treated with respect and a lot of love from every adult in the building.
