What is PREP?

​

PREP stands for the Pacific Rim Enrichment Program. The purpose of PREP is to support you in exploring your interests, passions and talents. PREP is your opportunity to try out possible career paths, experience a college campus, or get involved in your community. PREP prepares you for college and beyond! 

​

PREPs should be in the general areas of college readiness, career exploration or community service, for a minimum of 75 hours per summer. PREP is once again a REQUIREMENT for all rising 10th, 11th, and 12th graders for Summer 2025.
