The William Bunn College Preparatory Middle School

William Bunn College Preparatory Middle School WBPS MISSION & VISION

   The mission of William Bunn College Preparatory Middle School for Boys is to develop respectful, responsible, caring and intelligent leaders for today’s global community. Our board, faculty and community partners will make sure that each student achieves his highest academic potential through personal and collective responsibility. Our young men will leave the school as life-long learners with the attributes to ensure their success limited only by their own ceilings and walls. 
   Our school will establish a culture of success in an atmosphere of high expectations and high standards. The culture will reflect the discipline of many private preparatory schools without the financial limitations and constraints that prevent this model from being made available to all students.

   The William Bunn Preparatory School vision began as a pilot leadership program in several Wake County middle schools in the fall of 2010. With the program’s increasing interest from parents and community members, we have decided to make it a fully functional school, projected to open for the 2012-2013 school year. We have been fortunate to have the assistance of the NC State University College of Education and the Friday Institute for Educational Innovation. With their educational leadership and innovative practices, we will make this a very special place for young men to grow academically and personally.
