Welcome to Baldwin Prep
Small classes. Gifted, caring teachers.?It’s how education is meant to be.
Baldwin Prep is a K-12, private school in North Palm Beach that prides itself on a quality education with personal touch.? Class size is limited to just 12 students, parents are kept in the loop about their child’s progress in school, and students are encouraged to have fun and enjoy their childhood.
A Message from Mrs. Nicastro
Every child is important to me. I want our kids to be smart and successful, but I also want them to be good. I want them to be the kind of people other parents want to have around their children. I also want them to make sound, value‐based decisions that will help them be safe and happy.
So, like most educators, I spend lots of time trying to instill in them virtues like honesty, respect, responsibility, fairness, and kindness. But building character is more complicated than teaching math or manners. It involves the heart as well as the head. The goal is to make good thoughts and conduct a matter of habit. I want the children to know what is good, want what is good, and do what is good.
We teach character by promoting and developing the values and ethical virtues that make up a good person – trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, and citizenship. We need to be sure kids understand what each of these traits looks like.
We entrench these values by enforcing them, by backing up our rhetoric with appropriate consequences. What you allow, you encourage. Advocating values means passionately and relentlessly stating our commitment to good character so our children have no doubt what we want for them and expect from them.
Finally, and most crucial, we must teach positive values by example, modeling the virtues we want to see in our children. We teach values by the way we deal with pressures, frustrations, fatigue, and other everyday actions, especially what we say and do when we think no one’s looking.

A Message from Mrs. Baldwin
For as long as I can remember, my dream has always been to have my own school. I started my career in education as a math teacher, which is a true passion for me. Along the way, however, I found myself making mental notes of what I would do or wouldn’t do in my own school. I completed my degrees needed to become a principal but it was my mom who pushed me to go for my dream.
