Why Support MAP St. Louis?

MAP St. Louis is the region’s only Montessori and International Baccalaureate (IB) middle and high school—emphasizing holistic development while guiding each student on their individualized journey to achieve their full potential as actively engaged local and global citizens.

Transformative Learning Experiences

• Hands-On Education: Students take ownership of projects, from launching a skilled trade school to obtaining real estate licenses and building conservation herpetarium.
• Learning Beyond the Classroom: MAP students leave campus twice weekly for internships, fieldwork, and real-world projects, ensuring education is practical and meaningful.
• The Arts at MAP: Students and professional artists showcase work at The Gallery at 3840, connecting learning to the vibrant Grand Center Arts District.
• Urban Agriculture: Students care for chickens and quail, running a small egg business, and partner with Phi Global Farms for gardening projects and sustainability initiatives.

Community-Focused Partnerships

• Collaborations with the Contemporary Art Museum and Grand Center Inc. connect students with art, community service, and real-world impact.
• Students intern with research professors at Harris Stowe University, take college classes in high school, and participate in neighborhood clean-up days, embodying a commitment to civic engagement.

Accessible and Inclusive
