About the school

Gary Comer College Prep offers a college prep education for students in grades 6-12. At GCCP we cultivate our scholars to become knowledgeable, confident, and responsible leaders who are on a path to achieve their highest aspirations in college and beyond. We do this by providing an anti-racist school environment that focuses on joy, rigor, and relevancy; where scholars are affirmed, challenged, and celebrated for who they are and for what they hope to become.  With the support of the Gary Comer Youth Center we offer our scholars an extended day and numerous extracurricular activities and sports programs from 6th grade through the varsity level. Summer programming and enrichment are also readily available.
