Central Florida Prep moves to a purpose-built campus in Apopka
After thirty years in Gotha, Central Florida Preparatory School moved to a new campus built for it at 1800 Marden Road in Apopka: 40,000 square feet of classrooms, labs, and gathering space on a site with room to grow. The campus opened for the 2020-21 school year.
The move is the clearest example of what a campus does for a school. Enrollment has nearly tripled since, to more than 630 students PreK through 12, and the campus has since added the Robert A. Flanders Athletic and Performing Arts Center.
