Welcome to Lucy Stone

Roxbury Prep Lucy Stone Campus, formerly “Grove Hall Prep,” is located in the Dorchester neighborhood of Boston. The name was changed in 2012 to reflect the school’s permanent location in the former Lucy Stone Elementary School building. Students from Roxbury Prep’s middle schools (5-8) have the opportunity to attend Roxbury Prep High School for grades 9 to 12.

10 Years

The Lucy Stone Campus welcomed its first class of 5th graders in August 2011.

Academics and Culture

Longer School Day and Year

To ensure that every student masters each and every standard, we provide students with a longer school day and longer year. We also provide homework help and after-school tutoring, and double periods of English daily.

Curriculum and Development

Engaged in extensive professional development, coaching, and teamwork, our teachers develop units and lessons aligned with quarterly Interim Assessments (IAs) directly aligned with Massachusetts Frameworks and Roxbury Prep curricula. These assessments and supporting materials form the base for the data-driven instructional model that has greatly enhanced student achievement.

Morning Circle

Each grade level participates in a Morning Circle, where all students and staff come together to build community and celebrate academic success. The meeting is hosted by our principal, and incorporates everything from inspirational videos to performances from our Roxbury Prep High School students. Families and friends are always welcome to join in this celebration of our mission and culture of achievement.

Athletics and Enrichment

Many students stay after the extended school day to attend tutoring or after school clubs. Throughout the school year, students go on several field trips, including cultural visits to the Museum of Fine Arts and the Blue Hills Reservation. Every year, the eighth grade class goes on a special four-day field trip to New York City.

Our Foundation

Roxbury Prep prepares students for college and beyond. We achieve this with three high-quality, rigorous, aligned middle school campuses that serve students in grades 5 through 8.

Community

We use our talents to make positive contributions to our communities. Through weekly Community Meeting, after school clubs, and local partnerships, Roxbury Prep students enrich their own school community, contribute to the neighborhoods of Roxbury and Dorchester, and benefit from the support of Boston community organizations and philanthropic supporters.

Character

With mandatory uniforms, a structured learning environment, and school values supported by an Advisory curriculum, Roxbury Prep ensures that students develop the academic, social, and moral skills required for success in college and in life.

Great Teachers

Without good teachers, nothing else matters. Teachers are provided extensive support and coaching in curriculum development, instruction, and assessment, delivering engaging daily lesson and thoughtful, strategic unit plans.

Careers
