Barnabas Prep to offer new day program to those in the Lakes Area

Barnabas Prep, a post-secondary school for young adults with special abilities, has found a way to offer classes to even more students.

Beginning this fall, the faith-based Barnabas Prep will offer a day program to better meet the needs of young people in Branson and the surrounding area.

The day program promises to continue with the Barnabas Prep mission to empower students to achieve greater independence within a supportive and inclusive environment.

Students will attend Barnabas Prep Monday through Friday during the school year, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The day program will focus on life skills, social and interpersonal skills, faith integration, vocational exploration and recreational activities. Through Barnabas Prep, students will gain practical tools for daily living, while building meaningful relationships.

"We believe every student deserves the chance to grow and thrive, and the new day program creates even more pathways for that to happen," said a Barnabas Prep representative.

Applications are now being accepted for the Barnabas Prep Day Program. To find out more about Barnabas Prep, or apply for the new day program, visit their website, barnabasprep.org
