Little Water Prep provides your child with the skills, confidence, and knowledge to thrive.

When you see water..

When you see water in a stream you say: oh, this is stream water; When you see water in the river you say: oh this is water of the river; When you see ocean water you say: This is the ocean's water! But actually water is always on itself and does not belong to any of these containers though it creates them.

And so it is with you.

-Alice Walker

Little Water Prep is the container that will allow your scholar to take on any shape and any form!

Did you know that charter schools like Little Water Prep are funded at lower levels than neighboring district schools, even though Little Water Prep is a public school? This is why we rely on external fundraising from supporters like you!

Each donation helps us build a school that empowers children through education to recognize their power and have agency over their futures. Whether you give $25 or $2,500, your donation will support in providing uniforms, school supplies, books, technology, curriculum, facility upgrades, and more!
