The UPA Values Awards are about celebrating students who exemplify the qualities that contribute to creating the community we have all come to honor and cherish. The young women and men we are highlighting today have demonstrated through their actions that success is more about how we live than what we accomplish. The University Preparatory Academy is not only preparing students to succeed in the best colleges and universities in the country, but they will make a positive impact while doing so.
