Request a TourOcoee families have a private school option closer than they might think. Central Florida Prep is just a short drive up the 429 from the Ocoee area, putting your child within easy reach of small class sizes, hands-on STEM programs, and a school community that feels like family. Our 5-acre campus in Apopka serves students from PreK through 12th grade, so your child can grow with us every step of the way.
Our Ocoee families consistently say the same thing: they wanted a school where their child would be more than a number. At CFP, teachers build real relationships with every student. Learning happens in STEM labs, in our culinary kitchen, on our outdoor trails, and on the athletic field, not just behind a desk. With a 100% college acceptance rate, dual enrollment opportunities, and a values-driven culture built on our A.N.C.H.O.R.S. framework, CFP is preparing your child for the future while making sure they love the journey.
Step inside our 5-acre campus and experience how CFP students learn through real-world discovery, hands-on projects, and character-driven education every single day.
We believe education should prepare students for life, not just the next test. Here's how we do it differently.
At CFP, every teacher knows every child by name. Our intentionally small classes mean your child gets personalized attention, instruction tailored to how they learn best, real relationships with their teachers, and a community where no one slips through the cracks. This is a school where your family is known.
Through our A.N.C.H.O.R.S. values framework, CFP students develop leadership skills, emotional intelligence, and the confidence to make good decisions, starting in Montessori. Character education isn't a class period. It's woven into everything we do, every day. We're not just preparing your child for the next grade level. We're preparing them for life.
Your child will cook in our culinary kitchen learning math through measurement and science through chemistry. They'll explore ecosystems in our outdoor learning center. They'll build robots in our PLTW STEM lab and grow vegetables in our farm-to-table garden. When students experience what they're learning, they remember it for life.
Strong academics come first, but your child is more than a test score. Beyond the classroom, students have access to PLTW STEM labs, visual and performing arts, competitive Mariner athletics across three seasons, dual enrollment college credits, culinary arts, outdoor learning, and A.N.C.H.O.R.S. character development. Your child will find their thing here and probably discover new passions they didn't know they had.

CFP's athletics program builds teamwork, discipline, and a love of competition. The Mariners compete across three seasons with five varsity sports. Whether your child is a seasoned athlete or trying a sport for the first time, they'll find their place on the field.
Working in tandem with our A.N.C.H.O.R.S. character framework, our academic program challenges and engages students at every level. From our Montessori program through our college-prep high school, students explore core subjects alongside specialized programs led by dedicated faculty, nurturing well-rounded individuals prepared for their next challenge.
