preschools in St. Louis

At The College School, students from Preschool through Eighth Grade learn by doing. They explore creeks and forests, tackle meaningful challenges, ask big questions, and build the confidence to think independently. With strong academics, hands-on experiences, and a close-knit community, learning extends far beyond the classroom.

Community School is an independent preschool and elementary school serving families with children age 3 through sixth grade. Students excel in an environment that balances intellectual challenge and nurturing support. Visual and performing arts, physical education, and foreign language programs complement the academic curriculum, creating a rich learning experience.
