School Spirit
School spirit is abundant on campus throughout the year but never more so than during our fall Spirit Week.
Drey Land
The school's 40-acre wilderness camp in the Ozarks hosts the seventh-grade orientation in the fall, as well as a science field study program for ninth graders in the spring. Many outdoor education programs also take place at Drey Land.
Great Performances
Our senior orchestra is one of ten instrumental and vocal classes, each of which includes multiple performances throughout the school year. Our Music Department also offers courses in music history and songwriting.
Getting Involved ... Going the Distance
During our most recent Dance Marathon, students raised funds for ASHA for Education and HELA (Hope for Education Leadership in Afghanistan). Students engage in dozens of service projects throughout the year in support of the greater St. Louis community.
The Arts Front and Center
All of our students participate in some aspect of our arts program: drawing, painting, sculpture, ceramics, printmaking, photography—from the introductory level to intensive studies.
Class 4 State Champions
Led by Coach Jacob Yorg, the girls varsity basketball team (22-4) finished their season by claiming its first state championship in its fifth final four appearance.
Class of 2022 Graduation
A celebratory spirit filled campus on June 5 during our 97th graduation ceremony. Family, friends, students and alums returned to Graduation Grove to cheer on the 107 seniors graduating as members of the Class of 2022.
Leave no part of yourself at the door.
