College Prep


At Barnstable, our curriculum is geared toward helping students prepare for the next phase in life. We also have a number of specific programs to help students along.

We realize the importance of being fully prepared for the SAT. Our preparation course takes place during March and April. These twelve sessions encompass the math, critical reading, and writing components of the exam. In keeping with our philosophy of education, classes are small so that students can maximize their potential.

We also offer students an Early College Program as a transitional step for those who want to make the challenging leap from high school to college. The program allows seniors to take one or more three-credit courses during the afternoon. In nearly every instance, a student who is successful in these courses is allowed to transfer the credit to his or her college upon graduation from high school.

We are proud to be a college preparatory school where a high percentage of our students go on to college. In fact, 100% of the class of 2009 was accepted to college. Here is a list of the colleges to which past Barnstable students have been accepted:
