Lester Prep


Our Mission at Lester Prep

Lester Prep equips all students with the Wisdom and Knowledge necessary to succeed in college and to become leaders in their community.

Lester Prep is a free public school primarily for families located in the Binghampton community. Students zoned to other schools may also attend as long as space is available. We serve students in grades 6-8. Click here for enrollment information for this school.

Lester Prep is located in the former Lester School building at 320 Carpenter Street.


All Capstone Education Group schools joyfully serve all interested scholars, including students with disabilities and EL (English Learner) students. Capstone Education Group prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, creed, color, sex, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, ancestry, disability or need for special education services and gladly welcomes and serves students regardless of English language proficiency, disability, or need for special education services.

All CEG schools offer a full continuum of supports to meet the needs of students with disabilities and our English learners enjoy full participation and support through our sheltered content model with additional push-in services.

Feel free to reach out to our Director of Special Education Donna Brigham at [email protected] or call at 901-416-3640 for more information. You can also read about our EL staff and program requirements here on our Open Positions page.
