March AMBASSADORS
Our College Prep Ambassadors are an asset to the College Prep Academy. Ambassadors are selected monthly by peer consensus. Each candidate presents their candidacy to the class. The class then selects the best candidate based on presentation performance, attitude, and leadership qualities.
