Cultivating Curiosity: Enrichment in Action

For over two decades, City Academy has been breaking down barriers to high-quality education, ensuring every student has access to exceptional learning experiences, regardless of their zip code. Beyond the classroom, our enrichment programs in 🎶 music, 🎨 arts, 🔬 science, and 🏀 athletics play a vital role in sparking curiosity, building confidence, and helping students discover their passions.

Whether it’s a young musician picking up a violin for the first time, a budding scientist conducting hands-on experiments, or a future athlete building skills on the court, these programs provide transformative opportunities that shape well-rounded, engaged learners. Through enrichment activities, City Academy students develop creativity, teamwork, and problem-solving skills that will serve them for a lifetime. 

The impact is clear—when students have access to enriching experiences, they thrive. But these programs rely on community support to continue growing and evolving. That’s why today, on Give STL Day, we’re raising $20,000 to enhance our enrichment offerings. 

Your gift today ensures City Academy students have the tools, experiences, and opportunities they need to shine.


🎤 Grand Finale: Performing at the St. Louis Cardinals Game!

🚨 Help us send our students to perform at a St. Louis Cardinals game! 🎶⚾

When we reach $20,000 on Give STL Day, we’ll be celebrating in a big way—our students are going to perform at Busch Stadium! For many students, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take their skills beyond the classroom, demonstrating the impact of City Academy’s music and enrichment programs. Experiences like these teach valuable lessons in discipline, teamwork, and perseverance, while also inspiring a lifelong love for the arts.

Performing at a St. Louis Cardinals game is more than just an exciting moment—it’s a powerful opportunity for our students to showcase their talents, build confidence, and experience the thrill of performing for a large audience. 🎤⚾

By helping us reach our $20,000 goal on Give STL Day, you’re not just funding an unforgettable performance—you’re investing in the confidence, creativity, and future success of every student who takes the stage. Let’s make this dream a reality!

Join us in investing in the power of enrichment! Let’s give every child the chance to explore, create, and achieve their full potential.

Mission

City Academy transforms children, families and our community through exceptional education and bold expectations that empower children to overcome barriers. We believe that a family's geographic location and income should never be a barrier to accessing high quality education.

Founded in 1999, City Academy offers high-quality, innovative education to students whose families experience economic and geographic barriers to quality educational opportunities. We are the only independent school in Missouri providing tuition assistance to 100% of our students. Our programs provide holistic care and education for the whole child, and on our campus students build a solid academic foundation that opens doors to a lifetime of learning.
