Walk the WalkWe hold our scholars to the highest expectations and accept nothing less from ourselves as role models for our children.
Competitive SalaryNo U Prep teacher earns less than $ 55,000 as a base salary. And, for folks joining the network with 3 – 5 years of experience, having served similar student populations and worked in a like-minded school setting, you can start with as much as $ 70,000 in earnings during your first year.
Industry-Leading Benefits PackageBeyond a highly competitive compensation system, U Prep also invests in you as a person. As a start, we cover 100% of your personal health benefits.
