Skip to content Specialized instruction and support for students with disabilities, delivered alongside their classmates whenever possible.
At American Prep, we believe every child learns best when included with their peers.
APA was founded by parents who wanted their children with special needs to grow and thrive without the limits of labels. That conviction still shapes our program: students receive the support and specialized instruction they need while staying in the classroom with their peers as much as possible.

American Prep’s Special Education Program was honored with Utah’s Best of State Award in 2021 and 2022, recognizing our commitment to inclusive education and exceptional student support.
Special education services follow the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) and Utah State Board of Education rules. Here’s what the process looks like for families.

One email reaches APA’s Special Education office, for questions about services and for records requests.
Each year on July 1, American Preparatory Academy disposes of the special education records of students who left APA five years earlier. Until that date, former students or their parents can request copies of these records with proper identification.
To request records before the disposal date, email the Special Education office at specialeducation@apamail.org.
