History edit

Gulliver Academy was founded in 1926.[3] Gulliver Preparatory opened in 1975.[4] The Miller Drive Campus opened in 1996.[5] In 2021 Gulliver Preparatory broke ground on a new center for student life, which will be located at its Marian C. Krutulis PK-8 Campus. The center is the first major construction undertaken as part of the school's new master plan. It is also part of Gulliver's long-term plan to consolidate its four academic campuses into two.[6]

Campuses edit

More than 2,200 students are enrolled at Gulliver's four campuses. The campuses operated by Gulliver schools include:

  • Gulliver Prep - Executive Office
  • Gulliver Prep - Marian C. Krutulis PK-8 Campus - Coral Gables
  • Gulliver Prep - Montgomery Campus - Pinecrest - Formerly Pinecrest Middle School[7]
  • Gulliver Prep - Upper School Campus- Pinecrest
  • Gulliver Prep - Upper School Miller Campus - Olympia Heights[8] - Formerly Pinecrest Prep Campus[5]

Accreditation edit

Gulliver Prep is accredited by five agencies: the Southern Association of Independent Schools (SAIS), the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), the Florida Council of Independent Schools (FCIS), the Florida Kindergarten Council (FKC), and the Commission on International and Trans-Regional Accreditation (CITA).

Academics edit

Gulliver Prep offers honors, International Baccalaureate program, Advanced Placement, work and extracurricular experiences. The average class size at Gulliver is 16 students; the student/teacher ratio is approximately 8-to-1.[citation needed] Gulliver offers more than 30 AP courses, an internship program, and dual enrollment opportunities at the University of Miami, Florida International University [9] and Miami-Dade College.[10]

Gulliver Preparatory awards the International Baccalaureate Diploma.

Academic Programs are offered at all campuses. The Marian C. Krutulis PK-8 campus offers middle school students Gateway to Technology and Gateway to Technology for Girls. The Upper School Campus Signature Academic Programs include architecture, biomedical sciences, engineering, international business and entrepreneurship and law and litigation.[citation needed]

Age discrimination lawsuit edit

In 2014, Patrick Snay, a former headmaster for the Miami, Florida location, was awarded a settlement of $80,000 related to an age discrimination complaint he had brought against the institution when his 2010 to 2011 contract was not renewed. Snay's daughter, Dana Snay, posted information about the settlement on social media and the social media post was used as evidence that the Snays had violated the non-disclosure agreement with Gulliver Preparatory; courts ultimately ruled in the school's favor.[11]

Notable alumni edit

Athletics edit

Gulliver's teams, The Raiders, have won district, regional, sectional, state runner-up and state championships, as well as numerous conference championships. Gulliver currently competes in the 4A classification. The Miami Herald awarded Gulliver the All Sports Award for having the top program for small schools in Miami-Dade County, and the Florida High School Activities Association ranked Gulliver Schools 2nd in the state in the 2A and 3A classifications dependent upon sport.

The football field was renamed Sean Taylor Memorial Field on September 5, 2009, in honor of the late football player.
