We are very proud of our longstanding accreditation and partnership with the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). Our classrooms meet or are lower than state standards for child-to-teacher ratios, and our teaching staff is trained to utilize the nationally recognized curriculum of Project Construct. Due to small class sizes, highly qualified staff and hands-on learning, the school is able to offer differentiated instruction and care, which provides a nurturing enviornment that allows each child to develop skills and interests that enhance his or her's natural talents. The care and education we provide allows each child to build their social/emotional, cognitive, and physical skills to become a well-rounded, curious and confident learner, which is the key to academic success. 2511459 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false 22 0 true 60 true false false false false false false false false false false false false X 14 14 false false false false false false false true true false false true true false false false false true false false X Amy Gascon 3146211131 607 North 22nd Street St Louis MO 63103 Justin Struttmann President 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Tim Hasken Vice President 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Jessica Weber Treasurer 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Katie Niehoff Secretary 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Adam Bockman Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Tricia Chutz Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Diane Dymond Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Paul Feder Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Leah Hofferkamp Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Emily Koenig Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Elisabeth Koral Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 John McLeod Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Nikki Rivers Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Shaun Swearengen Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Shona Lamond Executive Director 40.00 X 99595 0 7505 99595 0 7505 false false false 326345 32400 326345 Tuition 616000 2142856 0 0 Food program and other services 611710 33854 0 0 2176710 7439 0 0 2510494 2184149 0 0 106231 53115 53116 0 1504323 1385462 118861 0 183090 163539 19551 0 120281 107437 12844 0 39590 0 39590 0 1922 1717 205 0 33139 29600 3539 0 177135 158220 18915 0 10860 9700 1160 0 65199 58237 6962 0 21620 19311 2309 0 Food and supplies 255761 255761 0 0 Repairs and maintenance 57729 51565 6164 0 Enrichment 27855 27855 0 0 Temporary staffing 181656 181656 0 0 8284 8284 0 0 2794675 2511459 283216 0 718844 554239 51593 66569 44490 1288618 825611 528206 463007 1365212 1061736 110483 108126 30615 29647 272429 256459 413527 394232 X 951685 667504 951685 667504 1365212 1061736 -284181 X false true X true false X 0 0 0 0 0 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 0 1010383 611843 398540 144499 108951 35548 133736 104817 28919 463007 2510494 2510494 2510494 2794675 2794675 2794675 Pt XII, Line 2d In-kind accounting services true true true true true true true false false false false false false false false true false true Line 3 The racially nondiscriminatory policy is included in all written communication and brochures distributed to potential new families and local businesses, school, physicians, etc.: The student body is racially diverse.
