Roxbury Prep Legacy

For 25 years, Roxbury Prep has stood on the foundation of Curriculum, Character, and Community — the values that have guided our mission since 1999. With rigorous academics, we’ve equipped students with the skills to thrive in college and beyond. With a deep focus on character, we’ve nurtured resilience, leadership, and purpose. And through community, we’ve built a school family where students feel seen, supported, and celebrated. As we mark this milestone, we honor the journey of our past and look ahead to the future, united in our commitment to transform lives through education.

Celebrating 25 Years of Roxbury Prep

Past. Present. & Future

Students, alumni, staff, and families came together with Roxbury Prep’s founders — John King, Evan Rudall, and Keith Motley — to reflect on the school’s beginnings, the journey of growth and change, and the bright future ahead. This video captures the joy, gratitude, and community spirit that define Roxbury Prep’s story.
