It also has an extensive leadership curriculum that revolves around The Seven Habits Of Highly Effective Teens. Young Men's Preparatory Academy also has AP courses for high school students, such as AP Computer Science and also is known for their STEM education and programs, including in: Mathematics, Science, and Technology. Laura Isensee and Michael Vasquez of the Miami Herald described the goal of the school as "to hone boys into young men, ready for college." Initially the school only had high school grades, but because Young Women's Preparatory Academy was a 6-12 school, the YMPA administration later decided to expand the school. In 2012 the sixth grade was added, and middle school grades were subsequently included.
