About

Uplift Peak Preparatory is a free, public, college-preparatory charter school located in east Dallas. We were established in 2004 as part of the Uplift Education network, the largest charter school network in North Texas.

Through intercultural awareness, challenging curriculum, and rigorous assessment, Peak Preparatory strives to inspire and nurture a lifelong love of learning. Our aim is to develop a diverse and peaceful community of responsible and globally minded citizens and scholars.

Uplift Education is the largest public charter school network in North Texas. Established in 1996 with one school in Irving, we have now grown to a network serving over 17,500 scholars in pre-k through 12th grade on 19 campuses across the D/FW metroplex. Our schools have received national recognition and 100% of our graduates have been accepted to college.

Each school provides free, college-preparatory education in a community that has limited high quality public education options. Our goal is to completely CLOSE the achievement gap between students, regardless of their ethnic or socio-economic background, while ensuring that 100% of our students graduate and enroll in college. Uplift’s big goal is for 70% of its graduates to earn a college degree within six years.

Primary Interventionist and Cheerleading Coach

For the past 6 years as an Intervention Specialist at Uplift Peak Primary in Dallas, I have had the honor of working with students across all grade levels from 1st to 5th grade. My students are performing below grade level, and require intensive instruction based on their individual needs and learning styles. I meet with the students in a small group setting, and we spend 30 minutes per group of very intentional time together to work towards getting them caught up. Each and every day, my students enter the school eager to learn, despite the challenges that they may face outside of school. They work hard and love learning! It is the most rewarding job to watch these struggling students grow! I also created the Peak Primary Cheerleading Program three years ago, and currently coach a team of 30 3rd-5th grade girls! The team performs at pep rallies and other Peak spirit events throughout the year. I love passing my love for cheer and dance on to these young girls!
